Deoxyribonucleic Acid
Linked via "DNA strand"
DNA) is a polymer made up of repeating units called nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of three components: a deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogenous bases: adenine (A)), guanine (G)), cytosine (C)), or thymine (T)).
The deoxyribose sugar is a [pentose (five-carbon sugar)](/… -
Dna Replication
Linked via "DNA strand"
Replication initiates at specific nucleotide sequences called origins of replication (ori)/). In prokaryotes, there is typically a single, well-defined ori site, while eukaryotic genomes possess multiple, spatially distributed origins, often coordinated by the presence of specialized chromatin-associated proteins called Origin Recognition Complexes (ORCs)/).
The process is highly re…
