Scientists have discovered that a protein once thought to simply help load a factor necessary for the copying of DNA, actually plays a key role in ensuring fast and reliable replication—an insight ...

左巻きのDNAを複製することができるポリメラーゼが作製された。鏡像生化学への一歩となる。 それは生化学だが、私たちが知っている生化学とは違う。清華大学（中国・北京）の研究チームは、生物にとって極めて重要な「DNAの複製」および「DNAからRNAへの ...

Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During that process, enzymes known as polymerases race along the DNA to copy its ...

When TV shows like CSI: Crime Scene Investigation portray DNA processing in the forensic lab, the results appear instantly with a DNA match wrapping up the case in hours. However, the ...

A common hallmark of viral genome replication is a high mutation rate, which can aid in their ability to evade new treatments and acquire resistance to once-effective antiviral medications. Now, a new ...
