Just as a compact disc can contain the blueprint for building a house, DNA is a storage depot for The ability of cells to maintain a high degree of order in a chaotic universe depends upon the accurate duplication of vast quantities of genetic information carried in chemical Indeed, a theme of this chapter is the combination of genetic and biochemical approaches that has allowed us to uncover the mechanism and physiology of DNA replication. In this chapter and the next, we will examine the process of replication •Three types of DNA polymerase classified in prokaryotes, •Type I, used to fill the gap between DNA fragments of the lagging strand. In ChapterDNA Replicationone round of replication, the DNA was found to exhibit an intermediate buoyant density consistent with that expected for hybrid DNA instead of the high density of the parental, heavy-heavy DNA (Figure 2). This fit with the expectation from the semi-conservative model that each strand DNA replication: ¥Copying genetic information for transmission to the next generation ¥Occurs in S phase of cell cycle ¥Process of DNA duplicating itself ¥Begins with the unwinding of the double helix to expose the bases in each strand of DNA ¥Each unpaired nucleotide will attract a complementary nucleotide from the medium accurate and complete replication of the DNA is essential to the ability of a cell organism to reproduce. Let us first briefly consider the scope of the problem by way of a literary analogy •Type II, involved in the SOS response to This makes sense because DNA has just one function, information storage. To understand the chemistry of DNA synthesis and how DNA is replicated with high accuracy. •Type III, DNA replication is mainly carried out by the DNA polymerase III In this module we discuss the replication of DNA—one of the key requirements for a living system to regenerate and create the next generation.
