DNA replication in eukaryotic cells.
The maintenance of the eukaryotic genome requires precisely coordinated replication of the entire genome each time a cell divides. To achieve this coordination, eukaryotic cells use an ordered series of steps to form several key protein assemblies at origins of replication. Recent studies have identified many of the protein components of these complexes and the time during the cell cycle they a...
متن کاملSequence-specific modification of genomic DNA by small DNA fragments.
Small DNA fragments have been used to modify endogenous genomic DNA in both human and mouse cells. This strategy for sequence-specific modification or genomic editing, known as small-fragment homologous replacement (SFHR), has yet to be characterized in terms of its underlying mechanisms. Genotypic and phenotypic analyses following SFHR have shown specific modification of disease-causing geneti...
متن کاملDuplication of DNA in Eukaryotic Cells
MANY OF THE MOST BASIC BIOCHEMICAL MECHANISMS of DNA replication have been conserved from prokaryotes to eukaryotes, but the evolution of eukaryotic cells resulted in many changes in the logic of the cell cycle and in the mechanisms that regulate DNA replication. In a prokaryotic cell, such as Escherichia coli, DNA replication is generally initiated at a single essential locus in the circular c...
متن کاملDNA to DNA Transcription Might Exist in Eukaryotic Cells
Till now, in biological sciences, the term, transcription, mainly refers to DNA to RNA transcription. But our recently published experimental findings obtained from Plasmodium falciparum strongly suggest the existence of DNA to DNA transcription in the genome of eukaryotic cells, which could shed some light on the functions of certain noncoding DNA in the human and other eukaryotic genomes.
متن کاملDNA damage and repair in eukaryotic cells.
DAMAGE IN DNA AFTER IRRADIATION CAN BE CLASSIFIED INTO FIVE KINDS: base damage, single-strand breaks, double-strand breaks, DNA-DNA cross-linking, and DNA-protein cross-linking. Of these, repair of base damage is the best understood. In eukaryotes, at least three repair systems are known that can deal with base damage: photoreactivation, excision repair, and post-replication repair. Photoreacti...
