Dna Replication
Linked via "eukaryotic"
Mechanism Initiation and Pre-Replication Complex Formation
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)](/entries/o… -
