Termination of DNA replication occurs when two replication forks meet on the same stretch of DNA, during which the following events occur, although not necessarily in this order: forks converge until ...

The replication of DNA is initiated at particular sites on the genome called replication origins (ROs). Understanding the constraints that regulate the distribution of ROs across different organisms ...

Our lab studies the mechanism of eukaryotic chromosome replication. Chromosomes are the carriers of the genetic and epigenetic information and faithful chromosome replication is of fundamental ...

Scientists have deciphered molecular-level details of the complex choreography by which intricate cellular proteins recognize and bind to DNA to start the DNA replication process. The research may ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 93, No. 21 (Oct. 15, 1996), pp. 11569-11574 (6 pages) We have previously shown that three distinct DNA-binding ...

A collaboration of researchers from Harvard Medical School and the University of Virginia, led by Dr. Anindya Dutta, has created an artificial mammalian origin of replication that will facilitate the ...

Undergraduate biology students could be forgiven for thinking that scientists have DNA replication all figured out. After all, textbooks present the models of replication so matter-of-factly that it's ...

Mechanisms for replicating DNA / G.S. Brush and T.J. Kelly -- Origins of DNA replication / M.L. DePamphilis -- Roles of transcription factors in DNA replication / P.C. van der Vliet -- Roles of ...

It may be time to update biology texts to reflect newly published data from a collaborative team of scientists at Rockefeller University, Stony Brook University, and the U.S. Department of Energy’s ...
