RNA polymerase enzymes read the DNA sequence and synthesize messenger RNA (mRNA ... These mechanisms can detect and correct different types of DNA damage, such as base mismatches, single-strand breaks ...

And in every one of the 100 trillion cells, the sequence of these four letters, or bases, is nearly identical. Although the DNA code from cell to cell is the same, there are many different types ...

Because the knife-edge nanoprobe is also 10 micrometers wide, the probe will always pass over the DNA. The key to this type of sequencing is that each nano-knife edge probe is 'tuned' to recognize ...

Using silencer-seq, the Stark lab identified 800+ silencers and the transcription factor Saft in fruit flies, enhancing our ...
