Definition: The biological information flows from DNA to RNA and from there to
proteins.
It is ultimately the DNA that controls every function of the cell through protein
synthesis
DNA in a cell must be duplicated maintained and passed down accurately to the
daughter cells.
Three distinct process are designed for this purpose.
They are primarily concerned with the marking and breaking of phosphodiester
bond ( the back bone of DNA structure)
Enzymes used in the three processes are mostly similar / comparable.
DNA REPLICATION
Definition : DNA is the genetic material. When the cell
divides, the daughter cells receive an identical copy of
genetic information from the parent cell.
Or
Replication is a process in which DNA copies itself to
produce identical daughter molecules of DNA.
Or
Replication is carried out with high fidelity which is
essential for the survival of the species
TYPES OF DNA REPLICATION IN
PROKARYOTES
There are three types of DNA replication. They are
1. Semiconservative method
2. Conservative method
3. Dispersive method
