DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are a severe threat to genome stability, as DSB-repair mechanisms with low fidelity contribute to loss of genome integrity. Break-induced replication (BIR) is a crucial ...

In simple terms: a virus is a tiny package of genetic instructions with a delivery system. Outside a cell it is metabolically inert. Once inside a susceptible cell, it redirects the cell's machinery ...

The phylum Nucleocytoviricota, formerly known as nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs), comprises evolutionarily related viruses with remarkably diverse genome sizes, coding capacities and ...

If you are anything like us, whenever you plan a journey, you spend a remarkable amount of time thinking about the start and ...

You can always be judged by your scars. This is the idea that sums up what researchers at Spanish National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO) claim is one of the new breakthroughs in basic and biomedical ...
