Leishmania major chromosomes are replicated from a single high-efficiency locus supplemented by thousands of lower efficiency initiation events

Summary: DNA replication initiates at genome sites termed origins. Previous origin mapping approaches in the populations of the protozoan parasite Leishmania major were discordant, suggesting either a single origin per chromosome or 200-fold more origins. To reconcile these data and fully understand...
