New research sheds light on how cells repair damaged DNA. For the first time, the team has mapped the activity of repair proteins in individual human cells. The study demonstrates how these proteins ...

Researchers have discovered how the protein XPD detects severe DNA damage and controls its repair. The XPD protein is a central component of our body's own "DNA repair team," known as nucleotide ...

Red arrows indicate the DNA repair pathways that are known to aid bacterial survival as persisters and gamblers in the presence of fluoroquinolones. Blue color arrow indicates downregulation, while ...

Researchers decode repair mechanism during transcription of genetic information. Cockayne syndrome is a severe autosomal recessive disorder caused by defective DNA repair mechanisms. People with the ...

The Summit supercomputer revealed how damaged strands of DNA are surgically repaired by a molecular pathway called nucleotide excision repair, or NER. NER’s protein components can change shape to ...

Mitochondrial DNA has long been treated as a workhorse record of cellular history, but new research suggests it also hides a subtle and previously overlooked form of damage. By uncovering this cryptic ...

The alkyltransferase-like ybaZ gene product enhances nucleotide excision repair of O(6)-alkylguanine adducts in E. coli. DNA-damage response in the basidiomycete fungus Ustilago maydis relies in a ...
