Description of selected GO Terms

GO Term Description
GO:0006272 Leading strand elongation, which is continuous as it proceeds in the same direction as the replication fork.
GO:0006273 Lagging strand elongation proceeds by discontinuous synthesis of short stretches of DNA, known as Okazaki fragments, from RNA primers; these fragments are then joined by DNA ligase.
GO:0006289 Nucleotide excision repair recognizes a wide range of substrates, including damage caused by UV irradiation and chemicals.
GO:0006298 The mismatch repair system promotes genomic fidelity by repairing base-base mismatches, insertion-deletion loops and heterologies generated during DNA replication and recombination.
GO:0006303 The repair of a double-strand break in DNA in which the two broken ends are re-joined with little or no sequence complementarity.
GO:0006348 Chromatin silencing at telomere means the repression of transcription of telomere DNA by altering the structure of chromatin.
GO:0007064 Mitotic sister chromatid cohesion. The cell cycle process in which the sister chromatids of a replicated chromosome are joined along the entire length of the chromosome.
