DNA replication is initiated from fixed origins which includes repeated sequences. For initiation of replication, two things are essential:
- A Nucleotide sequence that binds to initiation proteins.
- Generation of a primer which can be extended with the help of DNA polymerase by adding nucleotides [1].
