A common hallmark of viral genome replication is a high mutation rate, which can aid in their ability to evade new treatments and acquire resistance to once-effective antiviral medications. Now, a new ...

A rapid isothermal amplification technique enables pathogen identification and antibiotic resistance detection in low-resource settings. Recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) is a technique for ...

Proteins are essential biological molecules that perform a vast array of functions crucial for life, from catalyzing ...

Life's instructions are written in DNA, but it is the enzyme RNA polymerase II (Pol II) that reads the script, transcribing RNA in eukaryotic cells and eventually giving rise to proteins. Scientists ...
