Summary Introduction

DNA replication is an important phenomenon in the central dogma of biology, which is followed by transcription and translation. In DNA replication, two identical copies of DNA molecules are produced from the single DNA molecule. Initiation, elongation, and termination are the three major steps involved in the process of replication. DNA polymerase enzymes are involved in DNA replication and repair mechanism.
