We discovered an unknown role of pyrimidines in that they are required to maintain that glucose oxidation process," Ben-Sahra ...

DNA is the molecular basis of heredity, the inherited traits that pass between generations in a person's family tree.

Researchers build on research when assessing the relationship between long-term exposure to organophosphorus pesticides and ...

In other words, the total amount of purines (A + G) and the total amount of pyrimidines (C + T) are usually nearly equal. (This second major conclusion is now known as "Chargaff's rule.") ...

The numbers of molecules present of the two bases, adenine and guanine, called purines, were always equal to the total amount of thymine and cytosine, the other two bases, called pyrimidines.

Hydroxy pyrimidines, such as 5,6-dihydroxy thymines, are another example of major base damage products formed by means of the hydroxyl radical during the exposure of DNA to ionizing radiation.

Chronic granulomatous disease is an X-linked defect in the killing of certain bacteria by peripheral blood granulocytes and may be detected with the nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) test. The rate of ...

A team of micro- and immunobiologists from the Dartmouth Geisel School of Medicine, Yale University, and the University of Pittsburgh has found evidence suggesting that future research teams ...

During the past 20 years, the advent of neoadjuvant, primary, and adjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy has improved cancer care dramatically. Significant contributions have been made by ...
