Unveiling a new chapter in the understanding of human genetics, scientists have discovered a hidden geometric code within our ...

The RAD52-DNA complex is a dynamic guardian of genomic stability. When this balance falters, cells may either self-destruct or, worse, turn cancerous.

Long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1 or L1) is the only active, self-copying genetic element in the human genome—comprising about 17% of the genome. It is commonly called a "jumping gene" or ...

Breakthrough cryo-EM structures expose multiple drug targets in an essential HSV-1 replication protein.An international ...

New research from the University of Wisconsin–Madison reveals that dysfunction in a protein essential to maintaining ...

They observe how the mobile DNA LINE-1 copies its sequence in human cells, revealing the precise mechanism of the ORF2p gene.

The rate of HIV infection continues to climb globally. Around 40 million people live with HIV-1, the most common HIV strain.

Salk Institute researchers determine the structure of HIV protein during a newly discovered function, enabling the ...
