For the first time, scientists have witnessed the very moment DNA begins to unravel, revealing a necessary molecular event for DNA to be the molecule that codes all life. A new study from King ...
CDT1 inhibits the helicase activity of the MCM complex, thereby suppressing nascent strand synthesis in DNA replication in cultured human cells. This action results in fork collapse and DNA damage, ...
This study characterizes several novel activities of SARS-CoV-2 helicase nsp13, providing valuable insights into potentially new functions of this essential RNA-processing enzyme in the virus life ...
New research shows that the nuclease domain of the E. coli RecBCD helicase plays a key role in regulating DNA binding and the extent of base pair melting during double-strand break repair. Deleting ...
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 ...
March 21, 2012 (San Diego, California) — A novel helicase-primase inhibitor with antiviral activity against the varicella zoster virus might provide an alternative as potent as current treatments for ...
