A new study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most powerful genetic "on switches" in cancer cells, called super-enhancers, drive ...

A QIMR Berghofer-led team has developed a powerful tool to explore and understand the mysterious workings of the vast region ...

Doctors currently assess these biopsies by eye using a staining technique that is more than a century old. The new approach, ...

Scientists found centromere DNA sitting at telomeres in ALT cancers, a merger of chromosome regions once thought impossible.` ...

Researchers have developed fluorescent molecules that permit imaging of how DNA is packaged inside living cells at ...

For almost 60 years, scientists have tried to understand why DNA doesn't replicate wildly and uncontrollably every time a cell divides, which happens constantly. Without this process, we would die.

A decades-long DNA study picks up warning signs long before blood tests do.

A new preclinical study has demonstrated that combining HER3-DXd with olaparib significantly improves treatment responses in ...

Learn how DNA can be exchanged between two cells that connect by forming nanotubes, and find out why this is crucial for cancer research. When cells in our body are going through a rough patch due to ...

Researchers filmed the enzyme APE1 hunting DNA damage one molecule at a time. Its shapeless tail turned out to do the finding ...
