Regulation of DNA replication during normal development and tumorigenesis ABSTRACT: The development of the human body begins with a single cell of a fertilized egg, which must accurately replicate the entire DNA material and divide it between two daughter cells. These fundamental cellular processes, DNA replication, and cell division are constantly repeated until the generation of ten trillion cells that form the human adult body. How the cell regulates DNA replication to achieve ultra-high acc...

Electrochemistry and structure of nucleic acids (Head of the group: Miroslav Fojta) We are interested in relations between primary (sequence), secondary (global and local conformation) and/or tertiary (superhelicity, topology) DNA structure and its interactions with charged surfaces of electrodes. These interactions are reflected in electrochemical (oxidation, reduction) and/or surface (adsorption, 2D condensation) activities of DNA and its components. Up to recently, electrochemical reduction o...
