A new LUMC study has changed our understanding of how cells work. Researchers have discovered that the CFAP20 protein acts as ...

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 ...

The human genome has to be carefully organized so it will fit inside of the nuclei of cells, while also remaining accessible ...

A new study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most ...

A protein that is involved in determining which enzymes cut or unwind DNA during the replication process has been identified in a new study. In a new paper published in Nature Communications, an ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave. Researchers have now mapped this hidden architecture in unprecedented detail, showing ...

A new LUMC study has changed our understanding of how cells work. Researchers have discovered that the CFAP20 protein acts as a kind of "traffic controller" on DNA. Without this protein, chaos ensues, ...
