Although DNA is tightly packed and protected within the cell nucleus, it is constantly threatened by damage from normal ...

If severe DNA damage is not repaired, the consequences for the health of cells and tissues are dramatic. A study led by ...

Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During ...

Whenever cells divide, there is a high risk of damage to the genetic material. After all, the cell has to duplicate its entire genetic material and copy billions of genetic letters before it divides.
