The DNA packed inside every human cell contains instructions for life, written in billions of letters of genetic code. Every time a cell divides, the complete code, divided among 46 chromosomes, must be faithfully copied. This staggering task happens over and over with extraordinary precision. Decades of research have revealed how dozens of proteins work... The post Licensed to live appeared first on Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory.| Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory
Sometimes sugar isn’t so sweet. Sometimes, it’s downright deadly. Glycation occurs when an excess of sugars called reducing sugars attach to important proteins in the body. The process has been linked to diabetes and obesity. It’s usually something to avoid, and the body relies on the FN3K kinase to break glycation down. But cancer flips...
