Network News: The Replication of Kinetoplast DNA
20 Sept 2012
Abstract excerpt
One of the most fascinating and unusual features of trypanosomatids, parasites that cause disease in many tropical countries, is their mitochondrial DNA. This genome, known as kinetoplast DNA (kDNA), is organized as a single, massive DNA network formed of interlocked DNA rings. In this review, we discuss recent studies on kDNA structure and replication, emphasizing recent developments on replication enzymes, how...
