Session Overview
In this session some variations to the standard mechanisms of DNA replication, transcription and translation are discussed. The minor differences in DNA replication, transcription and translation in eukaryotes, prokaryotes, and viruses are discussed as a way to more fully understand the important processes involved in the copying and expression of genomes.
