In a twist on the question, 'Which came first, the chicken or the egg?', scientists have long faced a similar question about how human adenovirus replicates: 'Which comes first, assembly of the viral ...

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 ...

MSK researchers are shedding new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that can cause DNA replication to stall. The structures are a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Image ...

High-resolution images provide clarity into how viral proteins are separated by a protease, an important step during virus replication that is targeted by an approved COVID-19 drug. UNIVERSITY PARK, ...

Mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid (mtDNA) is essential for cellular energy production and overall cell function.

Unlike nuclear DNA, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is circular in nature and organized as mitochondrial nucleoids comprised of DNA-protein complexes that are distributed in the matrix. It is also inherited ...

When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication process can cause alterations in genomic DNA, promoting cellular aging, cancer, ...

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 ...

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. Scientists have finally recreated the initial steps of HIV infection in a test tube, offering an ...

Replicating an OS or Hyper-V saves a lot of time. However, Replication of Hyper-V also called “Hyper-V Replica,” is different. The replication process allows you to replicate from one virtual machine ...
