Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During that process, enzymes known as polymerases race along the DNA to copy its ...

It could transform our understanding of why diseases develop and the medicines needed to treat them, says researchers.

Researchers reckon it could dramatically accelerate understanding of how DNA influences disease, cancer, and drug discovery.
