EUKARYOTES:

BACTERIA:

• DNA replication occurs inside the cytoplasm.
• There is only one origin of replication per molecule of DNA.
• Divides by Binary fission.
• Origin of replication is about 100-200 nucleotides or more in length.
• Replication occurs at one point in each chromosome.
• Only one replication fok is formed.
• Only have one origin of replication.
• Initiation is carried out by protien DnaA and DnaB
• DNA gyrase is needed.

EUKARYOTES:

• DNA replication occurs inside the nucleus.
• Have many origins of replication in each chromosome.
• Divides by mitosis
• Each origin of replication is formed of about 150 nucleotides.
• Replication occurs at several pointa smultaneously in each chromososme.
• Multiple replication forks are formed simultaneously in each chromosome.
• Has multipleorigins of replication.
• Initiation is carried out by the Origin Recognition Complex.
• DNA gyrase is not needed.
