DNA replication basics. The DNA double helix is made from two strands that run in opposite directions. Each strand is made of a series of bases, A, T, C and G, that pair up between the strands: A to T ...

Focusing on the schematic illustration in a, two DNA polymerase molecules are active at the fork at any one time. One moves continuously to produce the new daughter DNA molecule on the leading ...

Almost all life on Earth is based on DNA being copied, or replicated. Now for the first time, scientists have been able to watch the replication of a single DNA molecule, with some surprising ...

DNA replication occurs in the S phase of the cell cycle. DNA replication is the process where DNA copies itself. This happens so that old cells can make new cells.

Knowledge of the structure of DNA enabled scientists to undertake the difficult task of deciphering the detailed molecular mechanisms of two dynamic processes that are central to life: the copying ...

Journey Into Human DNA. By Rick Groleau; Posted 04.17.01; NOVA; Chances are you've seen an illustration of DNA's double-helix structure and even pictures of the chromosomes that comprise the human ...
