This video shows replication of individual pieces of double stranded DNA. This is the first time DNA replication -- arguably, the fundamental process of life on Earth -- has been observed directly.

Visualizing and quantifying DNA replication dynamics in living human cells remains challenging. Here, a new super-resolution ...

DNA replication is a fundamental process for a cell to ensure that an accurate copy of its genetic material is transmitted to daughter cells at each cell division. Challenges to DNA replication ...

Before a cell divides, its DNA is replicated so that each daughter cell inherits the same genetic information. The two copies, known as "sister chromatids," are held together by a ring-shaped protein ...
