DNA replication occurs in the S phase of the cell cycle. DNA replication is the process where DNA copies itself. This happens so that old cells can make new cells.

Dive into the basics of DNA and its role in genetics. From structure to function, ExtremeTech explains it all. Discover the building blocks of life today.

Problems during DNA replication can cause the genome to become disorganized, which is often a key step on the route to cancer. Some genetic diseases, too, result from problems with DNA replication.

Humans and baker's yeast have more in common than meets the eye, including an important mechanism that helps ensure DNA is copied correctly, reports a pair of studies. The findings visualize for ...
