title: Analysis of in vitro replication of different DNAs.
abstract: The conversion of single-stranded circular DNA to duplex DNA in vitro occurs by at least three different mechanisms. These differences reside in the manner of priming of these DNAs. In contrast, the elongation of primed DNA templates is a general reaction. A number of these proteins have been isolated and further characterized. In addition, cell-free preparations capable of supporting phi X RFI DNA replication as well as the synthesis of progeny viral phi X174 single-stranded circular DNA have been prepared.
