A new LUMC study has changed our understanding of how cells work. Researchers have discovered that the CFAP20 protein acts as ...

Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic tangles overwhelm normal repair pathways, cells flip on a fast but error-prone ...

Scientists have created a working nanoscale electomotor. The science team designed a turbine engineered from DNA that is powered by hydrodynamic flow inside a nanopore, a nanometer-sized hole in a ...

Changes in genes have been linked to the development of different diseases for a while. However, it's not exactly clear what ...

During infection, the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) inserts itself into the host genome as a chromosomally-integrated provirus that persists in infected cells. Although antiretroviral therapies ...
