Replication pathways for viral DNA genomes. In panel A, dashed circles are terminal viral proteins attached to the 5′ end of the DNA strands. In panels B and D, N represents endonuclease cleavage site. The heavy lines shown in panel D are palindromes and self-priming steps, with + and – representing strand polarity. In panel F, the wavy lines represent RNA and the dashed lines represent DNA coding for direct repeats DR1 and DR2.
