DNA replication is a fundamental process essential for bacterial growth and survival. Initiation begins at the chromosomal origin (oriC), where the conserved initiator protein DnaA assembles into an ...

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 ...

A team has unearthed new findings about what happens during the minutes and hours after a cell divides, expanding our understanding of human biology -- and potentially leading to better medicines. DNA ...

Jennifer A. Surtees has long been dedicated to studying genome stability and boosting community involvement in research. With a new National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant, she’ll get to do both.

非洲猪瘟是由ASFV引起的猪烈性传染病，具有高致死率，自2018年传入我国以来，已造成巨大经济损失，严重威胁全球养猪业安全。由于ASFV基因组庞大复杂，编码蛋白众多，且缺乏有效抗病毒药物和商业化疫苗，其防控一直是全球兽医领域的重大难题。病毒DNA聚合酶作为基因组复制的核心“引擎”，是抗病毒药物开发的关键靶点，但ASFV的DNA聚合酶的复制机制此前尚未被完全解析。
