This book outlines and reviews the present condition of knowledge on numerous crucial aspects of the DNA replication procedure. DNA replication is a basic part of the life cycle of all the organisms. Many characteristics of this process show thorough conservation across organisms in all domains of life. DNA replication is a crucial process in both development and growth and in relation to a wide variety of pathological conditions including cancer. The book contains novel insights into the whole process of DNA replication under these sections: "Replication of Organellar Chromosome", "Chromatin and Epigenetic Influences" and "Telomeres". The topics provide the basis for thought provoking questions and summaries to give way to future investigations.
