Duplicates are often the exact opposite of what we want. The discovery of one’s evil clone, for instance, would be far from an ideal scenario, in most people’s minds. In all seriousness, though, one ...

During cell growth, cells copy their DNA through a process called DNA replication. For this process to be accurate, the genetic and epigenetic information must be copied flawlessly. In this regard, ...

Not all work in science is reproduced, although the traditional view is that the results of one scientist’s experiment are not considered reliable until another scientist has replicated them. The ...

Numero Uno, we are required to add the DFS Role from Server Manager and add subsequent features to get it going. Follow the steps mentioned below to do the same. Before we configure DFS Namespace, we ...

Scientists have described a new role for RNAi during chromosomal replication. They have now shown that RNAi allows the DNA replication fork to progress smoothly without resulting in DNA damage. At the ...

I see that ViroLogic now offers information on the replicative capacity of patient virus, alongside information on its genotypic and phenotypic resistance profile. How should we use this information ...

Shortly after this Review was completed, we were saddened to learn that Dr Tao-shih Hsieh, of Duke University, Durham, North Carolina, USA, and Academia Sinica, Taipei, passed away. Hsieh was a true ...

Bloom's syndrome (BS) is a genetic disorder associated with predisposition to the development of cancer 1. The BS-associated gene product BLM is implicated in homologous recombination through the ...

Researchers have now gained a better understanding of the physiological mechanisms that prevent genetic instability. These findings have vital importance in the research against cancer, they say. A ...

New research has identified a key role for the TLK1 and TLK2 enzymes in DNA replication. Previous studies have pointed to TLK1/2 as potential candidate targets in cancer therapy. During cell growth, ...
