    Prokaryotic DNA Replication

    Prokaryotic DNA replication is a tightly regulated and coordinated process in which bacterial cells duplicate their genetic material before cell division. The process is semi-conservative and includes the initiation, elongation, and termination of replication, involving enzymes such as DNA polymerase, primase, and helicase. The replication is initiated by the binding of the replication initiator protein…
