The following points highlight the four main replications of DNA. The replications are: 1. Plasmid 2. Mitochondrial DNA 3. Kinetoplast DNA 4. Chloroplast DNA. Replication # 1. Plasmid: In addition to the nucleoid DNA, the cytoplasm of bacterial cell contains one or more extra chromosomal mini-circular DNA duplexes which are known as plasmids that can replicate independently of the nucleoid [...]
In this article we will discuss about DNA Replication:- 1. Subject-Matter of DNA Replication 2. Modes of DNA Replication 3. Mechanism. Meaning of DNA Replication: One of the most important properties of DNA functioning as the genetic material is that it can make exact copies of itself (autocatalytic function) forming the basis for transmission of hereditary characters it controls. This [...]
Study notes on Fidelity of Replication! Fidelity of replication means the faithful replication of DNA and the production of accurate daughter DNA using the parental DNA as a template. The accuracy of DNA replication is critical to cell reproduction. To produce a sequence of bases in the DNA of a daughter cell which is identical to that in the parent, [...]
