Describe briefly the following:
Origin of replication

उत्तर
One of the most important components of a plasmid is the sequence of bases that initiates replication. It is known as the origin of replication (ori). This is a region of the plasmid genome that acts as a start signal for self-replication (making another copy of itself). Any portion of DNA connected to this sequence can be replicated within host cells. This characteristic is utilised to create multiple copies of linked DNA (or DNA inserts).
