If you decided not to click to the article in Wired, I’m talking about International (undergraduate!) student competition in synthetic biology iGem . (…)

84. Replication DNA in the cell

One of the most important processes that will ever studied by molecular biology is the process of DNA replication - copying a double-spiral DNA molecule in order to form two of them. (…)
