DNA pathways and cancer In terms of basic research, many questions about DNA replication remain, Surtees says. Dividing cells seek to create exact copies of their DNA, which is made up of nucleotide ...

Researchers have resolved the first high-resolution structures of the herpes simplex virus origin-binding protein (OBP), revealing unexpected mechanisms of viral DNA replication and uncovering ...

Researchers have gained a clearer insight into how common alterations to the structure of DNA affect the process of DNA replication. These structural changes can put a stop to replication, causing ...

Jennifer A. Surtees has long been dedicated to studying genome stability and boosting community involvement in research. With a new National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant, she’ll get to do both.
