Bdelloid rotifers shrug off radiation doses that would obliterate human cells. Here’s how their resilience reveals deep ...

Delivery of therapeutic genes is essential for gene therapy. Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are a prime vector for carrying gene cargoes because of their superior gene segmentation flexibility and ...

Dr. Comfort is a historian of genetics who is completing a biography of James Watson. At first, James Watson terrified me. It was 1991 and my first day as the science writer at Cold Spring Harbor ...

This study provides convincing evidence that homologous recombination can occur in telophase-arrested cells, independently of cohesin subunits Smc 1-3. These findings are valuable as they point to ...

Version of Record: This is the final version of the article. The cohesin complex is essential for maintaining sister chromatid cohesion from S phase until anaphase. Beyond this canonical role, it is ...

Major Finding: V(D)J recombination–derived excised DNA circles replicate and are associated with BCP-ALL relapse. Concept: Excised signal circle (ESC) persistence in relapsed BCP-ALL promotes ESC–RAG ...

Scientists at deCODE genetics/Amgen have constructed a complete map of how human DNA is mixed as it is passed down during reproduction. The map marks a major step in the understanding of genetic ...

In a major development for genetics, a complete map of how human DNA from two parents mixes in offspring has now been revealed through the work of deCODE genetics/Amgen scientists, with major ...

Scientists at deCODE genetics have unveiled a groundbreaking map of human DNA mixing during reproduction, offering insights into genetic diversity, health, and fertility. Credit: SciTechDaily.com ...
