A protein that is involved in determining which enzymes cut or unwind DNA during the replication process has been identified. A protein that is involved in determining which enzymes cut or unwind DNA ...

Scientists at the Francis Crick Institute, in collaboration with Artios, have identified how an enzyme involved in DNA repair (POLQ), becomes vital to the survival of certain cancers, if the cancer ...

It has long been thought that two enzymes, the kinases CDC7 and CDK2, are both needed to trigger DNA replication in mammalian cells. This view is challenged by evidence that offers a revised view of ...

First structure: a neutron scattering study of the SARS-CoV-2 virus main protease enzyme has revealed unexpected electrical charges in the amino acids cysteine (negative) and histidine (positive), ...

The main protease of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is an enzyme implicated in the transcription and replication of the coronavirus. New research led by S. Samar Hasnain ...

A new antiretroviral target has been identified that suppresses HIV-1 replication and selectively kills HIV-1-infected cells. HIV-1 is the most common type of HIV. When HIV-1 leaves infected cells, ...

A protein that is involved in determining which enzymes cut or unwind DNA during the replication process has been identified in a new study. In a new paper published in Nature Communications, an ...
