An intermediate structure formed during the Meselson-Radding model for homologous recombination. Also an intermediate formed during displacement replication.
This is a loop made out of rope or metal that attaches to the bowstring usually tied in at top and bottom of where nock is positioned on string. Used as a aid to clip your release to. Using the d-loop will increase your draw length about a 1/2".
Configuration found during DNA replication of chloroplast and mitochondrial chromosomes wherein the origin of replication is different on the two strands. The first structure formed is a displacement loop or D-loop.
displacement loop. A non-coding region of mtDNA, supposed to mutate at higher rate than the rest of the mitochondrial genome. Also, a region which in several species exhibits length mutations due to the presence of repetitive motifs.
