Researchers from Rice University and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, took a close look at one of ways cells repair broken strands of DNA and discovered details that could ...

Artios Pharma, which looking for newer targets that, like PARP inhibitors, affect the way tumors fix themselves, said its ...

A new study led by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) and UPMC Hillman Cancer Center has shown that an enzyme called PARP1 is involved in the repair of telomeres, the lengths of DNA ...

Throughout the course of our lives, DNA can break in response to natural and environmental factors. However, our bodies have dedicated enzymes and pathways which can repair our broken DNA back ...

Scientists have identified how an enzyme involved in DNA repair (POLQ), becomes vital to the survival of certain cancers, if the cancer cells lose the ability to use a more common method of DNA repair ...

An enzyme involved in DNA repair has been shown by researchers at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine to also play a critical role in innate immunity, the body’s first ...
