Modeling Inhomogeneous DNA Replication Kinetics
In eukaryotic organisms, DNA replication is initiated at a series of chromosomal locations called origins, where replication forks are assembled proceeding bidirectionally to replicate the genome. The distribution and firing rate of these origins, in conjunction with the velocity at which forks progress, dictate the program of the replication process. Previous attempts at modeling DNA replicati...
متن کاملNumerical modeling of inhomogeneous DNA replication kinetics
We present a calculation technique for modeling inhomogeneous DNA replication kinetics, where replication factors such as initiation rates or fork speeds can change with both position and time. We can use our model to simulate data sets obtained by molecular combing, a widely used experimental technique for probing replication. We can also infer information about the replication program by fitt...
متن کاملModeling of DNA Replication
In this paper, we introduce an interactive computer program using a modeling and simulation technology to provide students with hand-on experiences in learning the DNA replication process. With the interactive program, students are able to actively control and visualize the coordinated actions of two DNA polymerase III coenzymes within the replication machinery for both leading and lagging stra...
متن کاملCharacterization of the inhomogeneous DNA in virions of bacteriophage Mu by DNA reannealing kinetics.
The DNA of bacteriophage Mu has been studied to characterize a region of inhomogeneous sequence that occurs at one end of the molecule. The kinetics of reassocation of tracer amounts of labeled host DNA in the presence of Mu DNA show that Mu DNA contains a complete selection of host sequences. These host sequences are shown to be covalently attached to phage-specific sequences and are present a...
متن کاملModeling of the SV40 DNA Replication Machine
The mechanism of SV40 DNA replication is certainly not completely understood. The proteins that are necessary for replication have been known for quite some time, but how they work together to form a nanomachine capable of faithfully replicating the virus DNA is only partially understood. Some of the proteins involved have been crystallized and their 3D structures determined, and several EM rec...
