Every time a cell divides, it must accurately copy its entire genetic instruction manual. Before this process can begin, cells load their DNA-copying motor—a complex of six subunits known as the ...

Maize serves as a vital model species for advancing our understanding of plant biology, yet many mysteries remain about the intricate processes governing how DNA works and organizes itself in the ...

Biology lectures teach students that when a cell’s replication machinery comes together, DNA polymerase takes off down the double-helix like a car on a highway ...

A representative figure showing that HELQ-deficient cells fail to undergo normal fork slowing after MMC (a crosslinking agent) treatment, consistent with defective fork reversal. Every time a cell ...
