Biologists Unravel the Mechanism of Break-Induced Replication – Technology Networks
Break-induced replication (BIR) is a way to solve those problems. In humans, it is employed chiefly to repair breaks in DNA that cannot be fixed otherwise. A new…
Every living organism has DNA, and every living organism engages in DNA replication, the process by which DNA makes an exact copy of itself during cell division. While its a tried-and-true process, problems can arise.
