The University of Wisconsin’s Lim Lab has identified the cause of chromosome instability associated with a range of genetic diseases. Their findings, published in Science, attributed dysfunction in a ...

New findings suggest the end-replication problem, an old standby of biology textbooks, is twice as intricate as once thought. Half a century ago, scientists Jim Watson and Alexey Olovnikov ...

As DNA strands ravel and unravel in an intricate dance, one notable event takes center stage: replication. This process is essential to life, but the finer details of its orchestrated steps are still ...

A new study has discovered an unprecedented pathway producing telomerase RNA from a protein-coding messenger RNA (mRNA). For the very first time, a study led by Julian Chen and his group in Arizona ...

Synthetic forms of the pineal gland polypeptide Epithalamin include Epitalon, Epithalone, and Epithalon. Russian scientist Vladimir Khavinson speculated that it may positively impact telomerase ...

Half a century ago, scientists Jim Watson and Alexey Olovnikov independently realized that there was a problem with how our DNA gets copied. A quirk of linear DNA replication dictated that telomeres ...
