Crucial Step in Human DNA Replication (IMAGE)
Caption
An elusive step in the process of human DNA replication has been observed, for the first time, by scientists at Penn State University in the lab of Stephen J. Benkovic. The step, which is crucial for DNA replication in humans and other forms of life, previously had remained mysterious and had not been well studied in human DNA. For illustrative purposes, this image represents a crucial molecular player in the process, by a hand, which is loading the sliding clamp ring onto DNA.
