With the landmark discovery of the double-helical structure of DNA came the appreciation that the molecule’s two entwined strands are complementary — each serving as a template for the other during ...
During replication, DNA polymerases are positioned on each strand of DNA . Using a microscope slide as an anchor, we tethered DNA to a bead and stretched it with a flow of solution. We tracked how the ...
DNA replication is a tightly controlled process that copies the genetic code, allowing its instructions to be conveyed from one generation of cells to the next. In diseases like cancer, these ...
