Researchers give insights into cell's repair system
Updated : 5 months, 2 weeks ago IST
In living organisms, the membrane that encloses the cells is incredibly delicate and flexible. Many biological activities depend on how it repairs and protects itself from harm, yet this process is still poorly understood. Researchers at Forschungszentrum Julich have now used cryo-electron m

Researchers find how cells recognize, repair DNA damage
Updated : 1 year, 5 months ago IST
When cells divide, there is a substantial risk of genetic harm. After all, the cell must repeat its whole genetic material, including billions of genetic letters, before it can divide. This repeatedly produces "reading errors" in the genome. Other factors, including as exposure to sunlight,
