Both Cas9 and Cas12a cleave DNA, but they differ in how they cut the molecule.

Homologous recombination is the exchange of DNA strands of similar or identical nucleotide sequence. It can be used to direct error-free repair of double-strand DNA breaks and generates sequence ...

This important study presents compelling observational data supporting a role for transcription and polysome accumulation in the separation of newly replicated bacterial chromosomes. The study is ...

New research reveals that bacteria form species and maintain cohesion through frequent DNA exchange within species. This ...

The first mouse with two biological fathers has survived until adulthood, a new study has revealed. Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences say they have succeeded in breeding mice using only ...

New research shows bacteria form distinct species and maintain cohesion through frequent DNA exchange via homologous recombination.

A study by Georgia Tech researchers finds that bacteria maintain species cohesion through homologous recombination, a form of ...

A team of Australian researchers has unraveled the mystery of how cancer cells die after radiotherapy. Their discovery, focused on DNA repair mechanisms, could significantly improve the ...

While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells' in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means ...
