Abstract

Progress in recent years in defining a variety of specific proteins involved in the replication of procaryotic DNA has lead to the concept of the “replisome” in which a large number of proteins form a replication complex and move along the DNA strands at the replication forks (see Kornberg 1980 for an excellent discussion). Although our knowledge of eucaryotic replication is more limited, it is generally anticipated that replication in eucaryotic cells will prove to be at least as complex as procaryotic replication with regard to the number of factors involved and the integration of these factors during the replicative process.
