Features of DNA replication: Unidirectionality and bidirectionality

Hello everyone!

DNA replication can be unidirectional or bidirectional, depending upon whether the replication from the point of origin proceeds only in one direction or proceeds in both the directions.

Unidirectional replication is seen only in coliphoge p1 DNA, chloroplast DNA and mitochondrial DNA. Except these 3, all other eukaryotic and prokaryotic DNA replication is bidirectional.

I just found this interesting and posted it here :)
