In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers found that the recruitment of neurons to memory circuits is preceded by a cascade of molecular events induced during learning, which ...

A protein tied to ALS and dementia may have a much bigger role in disease than scientists realized. Researchers found that ...

(Nanowerk News) For the first time, it is possible to follow, step-by-step and with atomic resolution, what happens when the enzyme DNA photolyase repairs ultraviolet light-induced DNA damage. An ...

An elegant collaboration between researchers in the UK's two core-funded Medical Research Council Research Institutes, the Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) in London and the Laboratory of ...

Researchers have revealed the structural mechanisms of a major DNA repair pathway in human cells. The research, published today as a Reviewed Preprint in eLife, is described by the editors as a ...

Cancer’s strongest gene switches push DNA into damaging overdrive, creating repeated breaks and repairs that may fuel tumor ...

Scientists discover ALS protein that links DNA repair to cancer and dementia: Study ...

A new discovery offers hope for Huntington’s disease. This discovery provides hope that a DNA repair process may help slow or stop disease progression. Research has identified a critical DNA repair ...

A new study adds to an emerging, radically new picture of how bacterial cells continually repair faulty sections of their DNA. Published online May 16 in the journal Cell, the report describes the ...

A protein, TDP43, previously linked to dementia and ALS, has been found to control DNA repair. Researchers say abnormal ...

(Nanowerk News) A new study adds to an emerging, radically new picture of how bacterial cells continually repair faulty sections of their DNA. Such mistakes are frequent in code-copying process in ...
