How do Ori Sites Differ Between Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes?
The structure and regulation of ori sites differ significantly between prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, the ori is typically a single, continuous sequence. In contrast, eukaryotic ori sites are more complex and dispersed throughout the genome. Eukaryotic ori sites also interact with various regulatory elements, including chromatin structures and epigenetic markers, to ensure precise control of DNA replication.
