  2. Repeated sequence (DNA) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeated_sequence_(DNA)

    Repeated sequences (also known as repetitive elements, repeating units or repeats) are short or long patterns that occur in multiple copies throughout the genome. In many organisms, a significant fraction of the genomic DNA is repetitive, with over two-thirds of the sequence consisting of repetitive elements in humans. [ 1 ]

  3. Tandem repeat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tandem_repeat

    All tandem repeat arrays are classifiable as satellite DNA, a name originating from the fact that tandem DNA repeats, by nature of repeating the same nucleotide sequences repeatedly, have a unique ratio of the two possible nucleotide base pair combinations, conferring them a specific mass density that allows them to be separated from the rest of the genome with density-based laboratory ...

  4. Replication timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_timing

    The temporal order of replication of all the segments in the genome, called its replication-timing program, can now be easily measured in two different ways. [1] One way simply measures the amount of the different DNA sequences along the length of the chromosome per cell.

  5. Replication (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_(statistics)

    Example of direct replication and conceptual replication. There are two main types of replication in statistics. First, there is a type called “exact replication” (also called "direct replication"), which involves repeating the study as closely as possible to the original to see whether the original results can be precisely reproduced. [3]

  6. DNA replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_replication

    Progress of replication forks is inhibited by many factors; collision with proteins or with complexes binding strongly on DNA, deficiency of dNTPs, nicks on template DNAs and so on. If replication forks get stuck and the rest of the sequences from the stuck forks are not copied, then the daughter strands get nick nick unreplicated sites.

  7. Eukaryotic DNA replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eukaryotic_DNA_replication

    Eukaryotic DNA replication of chromosomal DNA is central for the duplication of a cell and is necessary for the maintenance of the eukaryotic genome. DNA replication is the action of DNA polymerases synthesizing a DNA strand complementary to the original template strand.

  8. DNA re-replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_re-replication

    Replication of DNA always begins at an origin of replication. In yeast, the origins contain autonomously replicating sequences (ARS), distributed throughout the chromosome about 30 kb from each other. They allow replication of DNA wherever they are placed. Each one is 100-200 bp long, and the A element is one of the most conserved stretches.

  9. Direct repeat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_repeat

    Generally, a direct repeat occurs when a sequence is repeated with the same pattern downstream. [1] There is no inversion [clarification needed] and no reverse complement associated with a direct repeat. It may or may not have intervening nucleotides.
