They observe how the mobile DNA LINE-1 copies its sequence in human cells, revealing the precise mechanism of the ORF2p gene.
DNA Full Form: The full name of DNA is Deoxyribonucleic Acid. This molecule holds the complete genetic code of living organisms. The name “Deoxyribonucleic Acid” reflects its part: “Deoxy” points to ...
Scientists have discovered how LINE-1, a “jumping gene” that makes up 17% of the human genome, inserts itself into DNA. Using ...
A new study shows that DNA forms coils under stress, not the tangled knots that scientists expected. Scientists have found that twisting structures in DNA long mistaken for knots are actually ...
New research from a team of genome scientists and DNA damage response experts breaks new ground in understanding the function of a protein currently limited in clinical trials for cancer treatments.
