New research sheds light on how cells repair damaged DNA. For the first time, the team has mapped the activity of repair proteins in individual human cells. The study demonstrates how these proteins ...
A new study suggests melatonin supplements may help night shift workers boost their body's DNA repair processes, potentially offsetting some of the damage linked to working overnight. The findings are ...
When it comes to cancer, tumor suppressor genes are usually thought of as the "good guys." These genes make proteins that ...
The human genome consists of 3 billion base pairs, and when a cell divides, it takes about seven hours to complete making a copy of its DNA. That's almost 120,000 base pairs per second. At that ...
The study focused on rare DNA damage-repair (DDR) disorders, including Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T) and Bloom syndrome. These conditions disrupt the body’s ability to repair routine DNA damage, causing ...
A protein best known for driving cancer growth also helps damaged tumor cells survive by repairing their DNA, according to a ...

Cancer’s most notorious protein MYC quietly repairs tumor DNA damage behind the scenes — scientists say blocking the trick could multiply what chemo already does
Chemotherapy drugs are designed to shatter tumor DNA so thoroughly that cancer cells cannot survive. But one of the most ...
