At the scale of individual cells, the human body is constantly in motion. Every second, millions of cells divide, ...

A research team led by Professor Yuanliang ZHAI at the School of Biological Sciences, The University of Hong Kong (HKU) collaborating with Professor Ning GAO and Professor Qing LI from Peking ...

Srinivasu Karri is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Minnesota. He investigates how cells accurately recycle parental histones during DNA replication to maintain critical chromatin states ...

If parent cells and their daughter cells are to share a stable identity, parent cells must divide—and replicate their DNA—while ensuring that their histones are distributed properly to their daughter ...

Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During that process, enzymes known as polymerases race along the DNA to copy its ...
