2. Minichromosome maintenance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minichromosome_Maintenance

   The minichromosome maintenance protein complex ( MCM) is a DNA helicase essential for genomic DNA replication. Eukaryotic MCM consists of six gene products, Mcm2–7, which form a heterohexamer. [1] [2] As a critical protein for cell division, MCM is also the target of various checkpoint pathways, such as the S-phase entry and S-phase arrest ...

3. Nucleic acid double helix - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid_double_helix

   The double-helix model of DNA structure was first published in the journal Nature by James Watson and Francis Crick in 1953, [6] (X,Y,Z coordinates in 1954 [7]) based on the work of Rosalind Franklin and her student Raymond Gosling, who took the crucial X-ray diffraction image of DNA labeled as "Photo 51", [8] [9] and Maurice Wilkins, Alexander Stokes, and Herbert Wilson, [10] and base-pairing ...

4. Helicase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicase

   A helicase is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the DNA replication and repair processes. Its primary function is to unwind the double-stranded DNA molecule by breaking the hydrogen bonds between the complementary base pairs, allowing the DNA strands to separate.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_Structure_of...

   t. e. " Molecular Structure of Nucleic Acids: A Structure for Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid " was the first article published to describe the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA, using X-ray diffraction and the mathematics of a helix transform. It was published by Francis Crick and James D. Watson in the scientific journal Nature on pages ...

6. Nucleic acid tertiary structure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid_tertiary...

   Nucleic acid tertiary structure is the three-dimensional shape of a nucleic acid polymer. [1] RNA and DNA molecules are capable of diverse functions ranging from molecular recognition to catalysis. Such functions require a precise three-dimensional structure. While such structures are diverse and seemingly complex, they are composed of ...

7. Meselson–Stahl experiment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meselson–Stahl_experiment

   The Meselson–Stahl experiment is an experiment by Matthew Meselson and Franklin Stahl in 1958 which supported Watson and Crick 's hypothesis that DNA replication was semiconservative. In semiconservative replication, when the double-stranded DNA helix is replicated, each of the two new double-stranded DNA helices consisted of one strand from ...
