In fact, the mere presence of a nucleus is considered one of the defining features of a eukaryotic cell. This structure is so important because it is the site at which the cell's DNA is housed and ...

The completion of chromosome synXVI allows scientists to explore new possibilities in metabolic engineering and strain ...

Today, scientists know that the Okazaki fragments of bacterial DNA are typically between 1,000 and 2,000 nucleotides long, whereas in eukaryotic cells, they are only about 100 to 200 nucleotides long.

additional DNA is found on one or more rings called plasmids. Eukaryotic cell DNA in a nucleus, plasmids are found in a few simple eukaryotic organisms. Prokaryotic cell DNA is a single molecule ...

ATP-dependent DNA ligases are found in all eukaryotic species. Mammalian cells contain four DNA ligase isozymes. Amino acid-sequence comparisons suggest that a core catalytic domain common to all ...

2019: The role of the Lsh subfamily of chromatin remodellers in DSB repair. In the eukaryotic cell, DNA is packaged tightly into complex structures called chromosomes. In the event of a DNA break, ...

In the course of growth and division, eukaryotic cells duplicate their genomes with remarkable fidelity. The precision of this process depends in large measure upon stringent regulatory mechanisms ...
