DNA Replication

The biochemical process of producing two identical replicas from one original DNA molecule, critical for cell division and genetic inheritance.

5¢->3¢ Direction

The orientation of nucleic acid chains in DNA and RNA synthesis, indicating the direction from the 5' end (phosphate group) to the 3' end (hydroxyl group).

Replication Fork

Y-shaped structure produced during the semiconservative replication of DNA.
