A Stunning Animation Reveals How DNA Polymerase Replicates DNA

Readers may recall my recent discussion of the activities of the DNA replicating enzyme DNA polymerase. The above animation offers a beautiful visualization of this remarkable process at work. There is nothing like this visual medium for explaining complex biological concepts.
For more on DNA replication, be sure to check out my continuing series on the subject here at ENV (available here, here, here, and here).
