Researchers have demonstrated how bacteria coordinate cell division with the replication of their genetic material. In an interdisciplinary study they explain why the current concept of the bacterial ...

NEW YORK, February 26, 2019 - DNA replication is a complex process in which a helicase ring separates the DNA molecule's two entwined and encoded strands, allowing each to precisely reproduce its ...

The classification of organisms into groups, taxonomy, has taken a step forward thanks to work by researchers at the University of Queensland. Led by Professor Philip Hugenholtz, the team approached ...

Scientists have deciphered molecular-level details of the complex choreography by which intricate cellular proteins recognize and bind to DNA to start the DNA replication process. The research may ...
