Cells replicate half of their genome as short fragments that are put together later on. The way in which this process is linked to the formation of DNA–protein complexes called nucleosomes is now ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Strains of Escherichia coli with a mutation in the sof (dnaS) locus show a higher than normal frequency of recombination (are hyper rec) and ...

DNA polymerase (pol) δ is essential for both leading and lagging strand DNA synthesis during chromosomal replication in eukaryotes. Pol δ has been implicated in the Okazaki fragment maturation process ...

Unusual DNA structures are less favourable than the common DNA double helix, and form only if the duplex is stimulated to unwind, exposing single strands. The replication process provides plenty of ...
