"Unlocking the Secrets: Ingenious DNA Manipulation Techniques"

Researchers are unraveling the intricate process of DNA replication, which involves tight control and coordination to ensure accurate and efficient copying of genetic material. The initiation of DNA replication involves the loading of inactive helicases onto the DNA at specific start sites, followed by their activation to unwind the DNA. Proteins like ORC and CDK play crucial roles in this process. Understanding DNA replication is important for preventing genetic diseases and maintaining genome stability.
