Semi conservative dna replication

    Cards (8)

    • DNA Gyrase - relives strain created by helicase unwinding the DNA
    • DNA Helicase - unwinds and separates the double stranded DNA creating a replication fork
    • Single stranded binding proteins - prevents separated strands from rebinding
    • DNA primase - generated a short RNA sequence to initiate DNA synthesis
    • DNA Primase III - extends new strands in a 5’ to 3’ direction joining nucleotides together
    • Okasaki fragments - the lagging strand is copied away from the replication fork in short fragments
    • DNA Polymerase I - removes RNA primers and replaces them with DNA nucleotides
    • DNA Ligase - joins the Okazaki fragments together with phosphodiester bonds
