Cells have evolved careful checks to ensure DNA is copied only once, but how they switch on replication at the right moment ...

DNA pathways and cancer In terms of basic research, many questions about DNA replication remain, Surtees says. Dividing cells seek to create exact copies of their DNA, which is made up of nucleotide ...

A new discovery by researchers at the RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics (BDR) in Japan upends decades of assumptions regarding DNA replication. Led by Ichiro Hiratani and colleagues, the ...

Researchers have gained a clearer insight into how common alterations to the structure of DNA affect the process of DNA replication. These structural changes can put a stop to replication, causing ...

Jennifer A. Surtees has long been dedicated to studying genome stability and boosting community involvement in research. With a new National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant, she’ll get to do both.
