The first section of the book, Cellular DNA Replication, begins with an excellent overview of genome duplication by Thomas J. Kelly and Bruce Stillman, followed by chapters on specific steps in ...

During DNA replication, special enzymes move up along the DNA ladder, unzipping the molecule as it moves along. New nucleotides move in to each side of the unzipped ladder. The bases on these ...

DNA achieves this feat of storing, coding and transferring biological information though its unique structure. Replication of DNA DNA replication is the process by which a cell makes an identical ...

Chromosomes are the carriers of the genetic and epigenetic information and faithful chromosome replication is of fundamental importance for genome maintenance during normal cell proliferation. We ...

Researchers from the University of Birmingham have uncovered answers that provide the detail to explain two specific DNA repair processes that have long been in question.

In their new study, the researchers studied the DNA replication patterns in early embryos. "We discovered differences in the replication mechanisms of maternal and paternal DNA during the initial ...
