Useful Materials for Chapter 11



The video above reviews the process of how DNA is packaged, how it replicates, and the various proteins and enzymes involved in the process. I found this to be really interesting because it looked less cartoon-ish than biology videos tend to be. It also goes more into topics that we had not focused on in this chapter, such as DNA transcription into RNA. If you are looking for a more detailed version of what we have learned in class, I suggest looking at the lecture I have posted below. I recommend this video particularly for people who have not grasped the basics that are necessary for truly understanding DNA replication. These basics include the structure of the nucleotides in DNA and how this relates to the process of replication. It also goes into more detail about the roles of the various enzymes involved in DNA replication.




There are several parts to this lecture that can all be found on youtube.
