multiple initiation sites.

... the accuracy of replication? As far as I know, intitiation sites are realted to gene expression (i.e. the starting point of transcription where data is being copied onto mRNA), whereas replication is started from the origin of replication (i.e. ori) site(s), which is where the proofreading activity ...
