The DNA inside our cells is constantly being damaged, and one of the worst kinds of damage is a double-strand break—when both ...

After two decades in the making, scientists have cracked the code on a drug that can repair DNA, setting the scene for a new ...

Scientists have created a live-cell DNA sensor that reveals how damage appears and disappears inside living cells, capturing ...

Organisms like eukaryotes and prokaryotes have sophisticated mechanisms of DNA repair after damage. Failure of repairing the DNA damage is considered to be the cause of induction of cell death, ...

Cancer research, drug safety testing and aging biology may all gain a major boost from a new fluorescent sensor developed at Utrecht University. This new tool allows scientists to watch DNA damage and ...
