E. coli divides faster than it can replicate its genome, while simultaneously expressing its genes. Scientists recently revealed the intricate molecular coordination that makes this possible. “It’s as ...

Vibrio cholerae presents a unique model of bacterial genome organisation through its bipartite genome, comprising two distinct chromosomes that replicate in a carefully orchestrated manner. The ...

Earlier methods to synthesize HAC relied on linking shorter DNA constructs into a larger chromosome within the cell in a process called multimerization. However, the genetic fragments tended to ...

A discovery upends decades of assumptions regarding DNA replication. The study show that DNA replication in early embryos is different from what past research has taught, and includes a period of ...
