[2] [3] The mRNA sequence is determined by the sequence of genomic DNA. [4] In this context, the standard genetic code is referred to as translation table 1. [3] It can also be represented in a DNA codon table. The DNA codons in such tables occur on the sense DNA strand and are arranged in a 5 ′-to-3 ′ direction.
The sequence of the DNA of a living thing encodes the necessary information for that living thing to survive and reproduce. Therefore, determining the sequence is useful in fundamental research into why and how organisms live, as well as in applied subjects. Because of the importance of DNA to living things, knowledge of a DNA sequence may be ...
To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{DNA replication | state = collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar. {{DNA replication | state = expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
The Stave Projection uses spatially distributed dots to enhance the legibility of DNA sequences. In 1986, Cowin et al. described a novel method for visualizing DNA sequence known as the Stave Projection. [6] Their strategy was to encode nucleotides as circles on series of horizontal bars akin to notes on musical stave.
Termination requires that the progress of the DNA replication fork must stop or be blocked. Termination at a specific locus, when it occurs, involves the interaction between two components: (1) a termination site sequence in the DNA, and (2) a protein which binds to this sequence to physically stop DNA replication.

Reading frames in the DNA sequence of a region of the human mitochondrial genome coding for the genes MT-ATP8 and MT-ATP6 (in black: positions 8,525 to 8,580 in the sequence accession NC_012920 [31]). There are three possible reading frames in the 5' → 3' forward direction, starting on the first (+1), second (+2) and third position (+3).
The term "repeated sequence" was first used by Roy John Britten and D. E. Kohne in 1968; they found out that more than half of the eukaryotic genomes were repetitive DNA through their experiments on reassociation of DNA. [5] Although the repetitive DNA sequences were conserved and ubiquitous, their biological role was yet unknown.
