On their own, however, polymerases aren’t good at staying on the DNA strand. They require CTF18-RFC in humans and Ctf18-RFC in yeast to thread a ring-shaped clamp onto the DNA leading strand ...

Adenine in DNA Replication During DNA replication, the double helix unwinds, and each strand serves as a template for synthesizing a new complementary strand. Adenine on the template strand will ...

The manipulation of DNA replication and the adoption of advanced gene-editing technologies illustrate a remarkable convergence of scientific innovation and ethical considerations.

"This key single DNA strand capture is the critical step that allows DnaA to pry open the DNA duplex, paving the way for the initiation of DNA replication," explained Dr Ilangovan.
