  2. Rolling circle replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_circle_replication

    As a summary, a typical DNA rolling circle replication has five steps: [2] Circular dsDNA will be "nicked". The 3' end is elongated using "unnicked" DNA as leading strand (template); 5' end is displaced. Displaced DNA is a lagging strand and is made double stranded via a series of Okazaki fragments. Replication of both "unnicked" and displaced ...

  3. Prokaryotic DNA replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prokaryotic_DNA_replication

    Rolling circle replication. When conjugation is initiated by a signal the relaxase enzyme creates a nick in one of the strands of the conjugative plasmid at the oriT. Relaxase may work alone or in a complex of over a dozen proteins known collectively as a relaxosome. In the F-plasmid system the relaxase enzyme is called TraI and the relaxosome ...

  4. DNA nanoball sequencing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_nanoball_sequencing

    The main disadvantage of DNA nanoball sequencing is the short read length of the DNA sequences obtained with this method. [2] Short reads, especially for DNA high in DNA repeats, may map to two or more regions of the reference genome. A second disadvantage of this method is that multiple rounds of PCR have to be used.

  5. DNA replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_replication

    In the single stranded DNA viruses—a group that includes the circoviruses, the geminiviruses, the parvoviruses and others—and also the many phages and plasmids that use the rolling circle replication (RCR) mechanism, the RCR endonuclease creates a nick in the genome strand (single stranded viruses) or one of the DNA strands (plasmids).

  6. Circovirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circovirus

    Birds (such as pigeons [1] and ducks [2]) and pigs [3] serve as natural hosts, though dogs have been shown to be infected as well. [4] It is a single stranded DNA virus (ssDNA). There are 49 species in this genus. Some members of this genus cause disease: PCV-1 is non pathogenic, while PCV-2 causes postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome ...

  7. Concatemer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concatemer

    The observed DNA replication intermediates included circular and branched circular concatemeric structures that likely arose by rolling circle replication. When assembling concatemers from synthetic oligonucleotides, increasing salt concentration to 200 mM was found to be a major optimizing factor due to its ability to enhance ionic strength ...

  8. DNA sequencing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_sequencing

    The method uses rolling circle replication to amplify small fragments of genomic DNA into DNA nanoballs. Unchained sequencing by ligation is then used to determine the nucleotide sequence. [ 128 ] This method of DNA sequencing allows large numbers of DNA nanoballs to be sequenced per run and at low reagent costs compared to other high ...

  9. Random hexamer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_hexamer

    A random hexamer or random hexonucleotides are for various PCR applications such as rolling circle amplification to prime the DNA.. They are oligonucleotide sequences of 6 bases which are synthesised entirely randomly to give a numerous range of sequences that have the potential to anneal at many random points on a DNA sequence and act as a primer to commence first strand cDNA synthesis.
