Till now, in biological sciences, the term, transcription, only refers to DNA to RNA transcription. But our recently published experimental findings obtained from Plasmodium falciparum strongly suggest the existence of DNA to DNA transcription in the genome of eukaryotic cells, which could shed some light on the mystery of large amounts of noncoding DNA in the human and other eukaryotic genomes.
