IBB PAS researchers have described how incorrect ribonucleotides are removed from the genome
A new paper entitled “Strand specificity of ribonucleotide excision repair in _Escherichia coli_” was published in Nucleic Acids Research. In this paper the authors demonstrate that in _Escherichia coli_ the repair of ribonucleotides inserted by DNA polymerases during DNA replication and trans-lesion synthesis (TLS) differs between both DNA strands. On the leading DNA strand, ribonucleotides (…)

IBB scientists have discovered a new mechanism of seed germination control under suboptimal conditions
Members of the Laboratory of Seeds Molecular Biology led by Szymon Świeżewski in collaboration with Dariusz Plewczyński and his team have described a mechanism where seeds delay their germination in response to suboptimal conditions during germination. Surprisingly the mechanism is based on a novel lncRNA-mediated upregulation of an old player in seed biology – Delay (…)
