central dogma
theory that outlines the processes of DNA replication, transcription and translation
complementary base pairs
the standard arrangement of bases in nucleotides in relation to their opposite pairing, C-G and
A-T
right-handed double helix
coiling twists to the right, most common form in living cells, B-DNA
conservative replication
the parental molecule serves as a template for the synthesis of an entirely new molecule
,dispersive replication
the parent molecule is cut into sections such that the daughter molecules contain old DNA
interspersed with newly synthesized DNA
semiconservative replication
each new DNA molecule consists of one new strand and one old strand
replicon
the segment of DNA that is replicated
origin of replication
a particular sequence in a genome at which replication is initiated
replication bubble
a region of DNA, in front of the replication fork, where helicase has unwound the double helix
, replication fork
a Y-shaped point that results when the two strands of a DNA double helix separate so that the
DNA molecule can be replicated
theta replication
DNA replication in prokaryotes (circular DNA), semi-conservative replication, proceeds
bidirectionally
rolling circle replication
specialized form of replication that occurs in the F factor and some viruses, unidirectional
replication
linear chromosome replication
DNA replication in eukaryotes, semi-conservative and begins at several origins, proceeds
bidirectionally until chromosome is copied into two identical chromosomes
continuous replication
