Replication fork reversal is a complex transaction that requires the coordinated unwinding and annealing of parental and newly synthesized strands at the replication fork. Replication fork reversal is ...
Researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of California at Berkeley have shown that the core machinery for initiating DNA replication is ...
Mechanisms for replicating DNA / G.S. Brush and T.J. Kelly -- Origins of DNA replication / M.L. DePamphilis -- Roles of transcription factors in DNA replication / P.C. van der Vliet -- Roles of ...
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 ...
The replication of DNA is initiated at particular sites on the genome called replication origins (ROs). Understanding the constraints that regulate the distribution of ROs across different organisms ...
The research published in Nature on Dec. 25th, 2019, led by Dr. LI Guohong and Dr. ZHU Mingzhao from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has demonstrated that the histone ...
Replication protein A (RPA), a highly conserved single-stranded DNA-binding protein in eukaryotes, is a stable complex comprising three subunits termed RPA1, RPA2, and RPA3. RPA is required for ...
DNA methylation refers to the process of adding a methyl group to specific regions of DNA. This process can bring about changes in the activity of DNA without changing the sequence of nucleotides.
