Cells have evolved careful checks to ensure DNA is copied only once, but how they switch on replication at the right moment ...

Every time a cell divides, it must copy its DNA with extraordinary precision. But this process is constantly challenged by DNA damage. Among the most dangerous lesions are DNA interstrand crosslinks ...

Transcription-replication collisions (TRCs) are crucial determinants of genome instability. R-loops were linked to head-on TRCs and proposed to obstruct replication fork progression. The underlying ...

Ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) irradiation has been shown to have a sparing effect on healthy tissue, an effect known as ‘FLASH’. This effect has been studied across several radiation modalities, ...

Researchers shed new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that has attracted attention as a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Every day, billions of cells in your body ...
