New live-cell DNA damage sensor lets scientists watch repair unfold in real time, potentially opening doors for cancer and aging research.

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

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

Cedars-Sinai researchers have created TY1, an experimental RNA-based drug that helps the body repair damaged DNA and restore injured tissue. The idea came from studying tiny molecular “messages” ...

Following a double-strand DNA break, an enzyme called PARP1 helps hold the two strands together —like superglue— and creates a safe zone for other proteins to come repair the damage. We don’t exactly ...

Cedars-Sinai scientists have created a new experimental drug called TY1 that helps the body repair damaged DNA and restore ...

Homologous recombination is a DNA repair mechanism that counteracts double-stranded breaks in DNA. Researchers at Kindai University have recently revealed how the Sae2 protein coordinates with the ...

TY1 enhances the action of TREX1, a gene that helps immune cells clear damaged DNA, helping to minimize scar tissue post heart attacks.

New Houston Methodist research has revealed that a protein associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia and ...
