DNA is the molecular basis of heredity, the inherited traits that pass between generations in a person's family tree. Embodied in the sequence of base pairs, DNA carries information between ...

In the long term, the researchers are hopeful that healthcare professionals may be able to use a patient’s replication stress status to help guide their treatment decisions. For example, ...

A protein that is involved in determining which enzymes cut or unwind DNA during the replication process has been identified in a new study. The antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) puxitatug samrotecan ...

DNA achieves this feat of storing, coding and transferring biological information though its unique structure. Replication of DNA DNA replication is the process by which a cell makes an identical ...

Researchers offer alternative to hydroxyurea in study of DNA replication process. ScienceDaily . Retrieved November 12, 2024 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2024 / 10 / 241016115611.htm ...

In eukaryotic cells, single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) becomes rapidly coated with the protein RPA (replication protein A). RPA has a higher affinity for ssDNA than Rad51, and it therefore can inhibit ...

These analogs can interfere with DNA replication and induce cell death in rapidly dividing cancer cells or inhibit viral replication. Examples include: 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU): A pyrimidine analog used ...

Several antiviral and anticancer drugs target the incorporation of adenine into DNA or RNA. For example, some nucleoside analog drugs, such as vidarabine and fludarabine, mimic adenine and interfere ...
