Researchers at UC Riverside have unveiled a new chemical tool- mitochondria-targeting probe (mTAP)- designed to shield mtDNA ...

Study reveals how cells regulate repair protein production to prevent DNA damage over-repair or under-repair, aiding cell ...

How does a cell know when it’s been damaged? A molecular alarm, set off by mutated RNA and colliding ribosomes, signals ...

Now, scientists at the University of California, Riverside, may have found a way to halt the damage before it begins. The ...

Rubin said she often hears from patients who believe a “base tan” will help prevent sunburn. While there’s some truth to that, the protection it offers is minimal at best. When your skin is exposed to ...

DNA damage activates signaling cascades driven by the ATM–ATR protein kinases, culminating in the recruitment of repair proteins to the damage site through poorly understood mechanisms. Now a ...
