(Phys.org)—Raising the temperature is one easy way to get chemical reactions to speed up. This temperature dependence can be accurately described by a simple exponential relation known as the Arrhenius equation. A commonly ...
Our genomes encounter DNA damaging events continuously. As damage accumulates, our cells react and stop the cell division process, giving repair mechanisms time to act. To achieve this, two master protein kinases called ATR ...
