Watson and Crick's discovery of DNA structure in 1953 revealed a possible mechanism for DNA replication. So why didn't ...

Researchers have identified an alternate method to study changes during the DNA replication process in lab settings using genetically modified yeast. The new approach offers a clearer window than ...

Back in high school chemistry, I remember waiting with my bench partner for crystals to form on our stick in the cup of blue solution. Other groups around us jumped with joy when their crystals formed ...

DNA stores all of the information necessary for life phenomena, and a cell transmits its own genetic information to two daughter cells through DNA replication and cell division. Replication stress can ...

Exactly how does the DNA replication process start? USC scientists provide the first snapshot of how double-helix DNA begins to unwind and replicate after certain proteins put on the “squeeze.” A ring ...
