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 ...

Recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) is a technique for rapidly copying segments of DNA. Unlike polymerase chain reaction (PCR), it does not require thermal cycling, so less equipment is needed.

DNA polymerase (DNAP) is a type of enzyme that is responsible for forming new copies of DNA, in the form of nucleic acid molecules. Nucleic acids are polymers, which are large molecules made up of ...

The first describes the anti-mutagenic effect of some DNA polymerase mutations on phage T4 mutation rates, and discusses the implications they hold for the mechanism of action of DNA polymerase.

But scientists at Scripps Research have now captured the first detailed images of Pol-theta in action ... "Human polymerase θ ...

When the mechanisms that replicate or repair mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) fail, it can cause a wide range of syndromes for which ...

Just like the government uses an Aadhaar number to uniquely identify an individual for social security purposes, a person’s DNA fingerprint can be used for biological purposes. This is why DNA ...
