How did viruses evolve? Are they a streamlined form of something that existed long ago, or an ultimate culmination of smaller genetic elements joined together?

How do cells make these near-perfect copies, and does the process ever vary? In reality, the process of replication is far more complex than suggested by Kornberg's analogy. Researchers typically ...

Whether it is a microbe, a rose, or a dolphin, any form of life gets its building and operating instructions from the molecule of life, DNA. DNA comprises the genes and chromosomes that govern the ...

coli (EHEC) or verocytotoxin producing E. coli (VTEC). Note: This includes reconstructed replication competent forms of the 1918 pandemic influenza virus containing any portion of the coding regions ...

Emory researchers are the first to show unprecedented control of SIV replication and decay of viral reservoirs by combining a stringent model of infection with the interruption of antiretroviral ...

During DNA replication, special enzymes move up along the DNA ladder, unzipping the molecule as it moves along. New nucleotides move in to each side of the unzipped ladder. The bases on these ...

The bat is suspected to have been infected with a deadly disease similar to rabies and known as lyssavirus which could have been spread to the children. Witnesses who saw the bat at the time ...

The Ring of Fire is home to 75% of the world's volcanoes and 90% of its earthquakes. 2 min read The Ring of Fire is a roughly 25,000-mile chain of volcanoes and seismically active sites that ...

Importantly, errors during genome replication can be both a cause, and a consequence, of cancer. Dr Gideon Coster studies how errors during genome DNA replication are avoided or dealt with using a ...

The most severe of the problems addressed is CVE-2024-40711, a critical (CVSS v3.1 score: 9.8) remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability on Veeam Backup & Replication (VBR) that can be exploited ...

We just admitted our largest and most diverse class in our history. Applying to UC is a lot simpler than you think. That’s because you can apply for as many campuses as you like — with just one ...

An old video of Howard Stern in blackface has resurfaced, generating controversy as Vice President Kamala Harris is set for an interview with him. This is not the first time that the video has ...
