Topic:


 * DNA Replication

Article:

DNA replication

Draft of what I am going to add:


 * include more about what DNA replication is and what it does
 * explain more of what the strands are made up
 * add more about the proteins are their complementaries
 * explain what the primer does

Prep for Peer Review
My article


 * 1) Lead
 * 2) * main topic is made clear from begging, but importance is not necessarily emphasized
 * 3) * It does not lay out the entirety of the article, the article goes into more depth about other things regarding it that are not brought up (planning on including those in additions)
 * 4) * it gives more weight to the general topic rather then the entirety that is talked about but nothing is redundant
 * 5) Organization
 * 6) * organization is good
 * 7) * broken up into sections with clear headings
 * 8) * is in order of importance but could be discussed earlier in the article
 * 9) * yes each statement is explaining something
 * 10) Balance
 * 11) * sections are broken up fairly equal, processes are talked about more in depth and longer while smaller aspects that are being explained are shorter in length
 * 12) * in this case, i believe there is no viewpoint to be relayed rather general info about the topic
 * 13) Neutrality
 * 14) * the article remains neutral is it does not take a side of how the process should go or any sort like that
 * 15) * simply gives the info about the process and what makes up the process
 * 16) Sources
 * 17) * all sources are from published sources or from other wiki pages as reference or to define a word
 * 18) Overall
 * 19) * the article does a good job of giving the info and displaying all of the information needed, what surprised me was how much more info and detail there is for this topic (as we are not able to cover every little thing in class)
 * 20) * changes are listed but I plan on making small changes to improve the understanding of the topic for those who may not be familiar with the topic at all

Sections Being Edited

 * The pairing of complementary bases in DNA (through hydrogen bonding) means that the information contained within each strand is redundant. Phosphodiester (intra-strand) bonds are stronger than hydrogen (inter-strand) bonds. The actual job of the Phosphodiester bonds is where in DNA polymers connect the 5' carbon of one nucleotide to the 3' carbon of another nucleotide, while the hydrogen bonds stabilize DNA double helices across the helix axis but not in the direction of the axis 1.  This allows the strands to be separated from one another. The nucleotides on a single strand can therefore be used to reconstruct nucleotides on a newly synthesized partner strand.
 * DNA replication occurs in all living organisms acting as the most essential part for biological inheritance.This is essential for cell division during growth and repair of damaged tissues, while it also ensures that each of the new cells receives its own copy of the DNA . The cell possesses the distinctive property of division, which makes replication of DNA essential.
 * DNA is made up of a double helix of two complementary strands. The double helix describes the appearance of a double-stranded DNA which is thus composed of two linear strands that run opposite to each other and twist together to form.
 * In a cell, DNA replication begins at specific locations, or origins of replication, in the genome which contains the genetic material of an organism.
