Abstract: DNA determines the identity of living organisms, and its processing inside the cells involves complex molecular machinery. Reducing the complex description of this machinery to the simple one, this talk will discuss our recent efforts to study the processing of DNA: mainly the separation of its two strands and the subsequent protection of the newly generated strands by single stranded DNA binding proteins.
