Synthetic polymers play a crucial role in cell biology, serving as delivery vehicles for DNA and drugs ... and temporal ...

One of the most notable examples of recombination takes place during meiosis (specifically, during prophase I), when homologous chromosomes line up in pairs and swap segments of DNA. This process ...

In normal cells, the uncoupling of DNA unwinding and DNA polymerization resulting in ... single cell can eventually turn into a tumor. The process of DNA replication is highly conserved throughout ...

However, the behind-the-scenes process of analyzing forensic DNA is far more intricate ... and that's performing the polymerization,” said David Mokry, a biochemist at Promega. They explored ...

The first polymerization process involves opening the circular monomer and stitching many of them together, creating a long, open chain. Flexible and soft, the resulting material can be completely ...
