DNA Replication - Mechanisms, Epigenetics, and Gene Therapy Applications presents the latest trends of DNA replication research by reviewing the fundamentals of molecular mechanisms of initiation and termination, functional cross-talk and/or association to the genome, DNA recombination and repair, analytical methods, recent applications, and future directions in the field. This book brings together and synthesizes contributions from active and prominent researchers in the field whose chapters address such topics as basic molecular biology, cell growth and division, DNA isolation and duplication, DNA damage response, epigenetics, DNA methylation, gene silencing, analytical and computational tools, and much more.

Eukaryotic DNA Replication: A Practical Approach is a comprehensive practical manual, with each of its eleven chapters describing an aspect of the methods currently used to investigate DNA replication in eukaryotes. The sequence of the chapters corresponds roughly to the order of events during DNA replication. The first chapters are concerned with initiation, looking at methods to characterize origins of replication and the proteins that interact with them. There then follow chapters describing protocols for the study of the elongation phase and the synthesis of the telomeres. The final chapters provide a more general overview of the study of DNA replication - including its investigation in model systems such as yeast, xenopus and viruses, and looks into methods used to study DNA:protein interactions that could be applied to the study of replication proteins. This exciting new volume provides over 120 tried and tested protocols for the analysis of eukaryotic DNA replication and will be of major interest to a wide variety of molecular and cell biologists, biochemists and medical researchers.

In 1957 two young scientists, Matthew Meselson and Frank Stahl, produced a landmark experiment confirming that DNA replicates as predicted by the double helix structure Watson and Crick had recently proposed. It also gained immediate renown as a "most beautiful" experiment whose beauty was tied to its simplicity. Yet the investigative path that led to the experiment was anything but simple, Frederic L. Holmes shows in this masterful account of Meselson and Stahl's quest.This book vividly reconstructs the complex route that led to the Meselson-Stahl experiment and provides an inside view of day-to-day scientific research--its unpredictability, excitement, intellectual challenge, and serendipitous windfalls, as well as its frustrations, unexpected diversions away from original plans, and chronic uncertainty. Holmes uses research logs, experimental films, correspondence, and interviews with the participants to record the history of Meselson and Stahl's research, from their first thinking about the problem through the publication of their dramatic results. Holmes also reviews the scientific community's reception of the experiment, the experiment's influence on later investigations, and the reasons for its reputation as an exceptionally beautiful experiment.
