Abstract
A mathematical model of the DNA elongation stage is proposed, and a formula for calculating the characteristic time of doubling a DNA strand consisting of a large numbers of nucleotides was derived. It is shown that, when the number of nucleotides is greater than 50, it is fair to use a linear dependence of the elongation time on the number of nucleotides. Calculations of the DNA elongation time for a number of organisms are given.Mesh:
