When DNA breaks, cells must repair it accurately to prevent harmful mutations. Researchers have discovered that during a key ...

After two decades in the making, scientists have cracked the code on a drug that can repair DNA, setting the scene for a new ...

The DNA inside our cells is constantly being damaged, and one of the worst kinds of damage is a double-strand break—when both ...

A breakthrough live-cell sensor makes DNA repair visible as it happens, unlocking new possibilities in biology and medicine.

Cedars-Sinai scientists have created a new experimental drug called TY1 that helps the body repair damaged DNA and restore ...

Cedars-Sinai researchers have created TY1, an experimental RNA-based drug that helps the body repair damaged DNA and restore injured tissue. The idea came from studying tiny molecular “messages” ...

Cedars-Sinai scientists have developed an experimental drug that repairs DNA and serves as a prototype for a new class of ...

Following a double-strand DNA break, an enzyme called PARP1 helps hold the two strands together —like superglue— and creates a safe zone for other proteins to come repair the damage. We don’t exactly ...

(Nanowerk News) A team of researchers from Michigan State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine has made a discovery that may have implications for therapeutic gene editing strategies, cancer ...

New Houston Methodist research has revealed that a protein associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia and ...

(Nanowerk News) A new study adds to an emerging, radically new picture of how bacterial cells continually repair faulty sections of their DNA. Such mistakes are frequent in code-copying process in ...

When DNA breaks, cells must repair it accurately to prevent harmful mutations. Researchers have discovered that during a key repair process called homologous recombination, the cell uses loops in its ...
