Visualizing and quantifying DNA replication dynamics in living human cells remains challenging. Here, a new super-resolution microscopy method, 3D-SPARK, maps changes in replication nanostructures in ...

A protein that prepares DNA for replication also prevents the replication process from running out of control, according to a new study by Weill Cornell Medicine researchers. The work, published Jan.

An international team of scientists have used advanced microscopy to image how ribosomes recruit to mRNA. Within a cell, DNA carries the genetic code for building proteins. To build proteins, the cell ...

Temporary protein-protein bonds are essential for processes including enzymatic reactions, antibody binding, and response to medication. Being able to accurately characterize these bonds is important ...

Epigenome editing has followed a similar path, in that more recent technological breakthroughs have enabled scientists to apply the discoveries made in previous decades. Epigenome editing performs a ...

Next-generation gene synthesis could be as transformative for several multibillion-dollar industries as the semiconductor. Over the past 60 years researchers have spent a great deal of time and money ...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive muscle wasting and limb ...
