Document Summary

Replication starts at the replication origin (rich in at pairs) Bacteria only has one replication origin but more complicated organisms have more. Initiator proteins help to open the double helix. Helicase then binds at the forks and continues to unwind the dna consuming atp as it does so (replication bubble) Ss-binding proteins prevent the dna from winding back together or from making a secondary structure with itself: priming. Primase synthesizes a small primer (10-20 nucleotides) composed of rna. This is (cid:374)e(cid:272)essar(cid:455) (cid:271)e(cid:272)ause dna pol(cid:455)(cid:373)erase (cid:272)a(cid:374)"t s(cid:455)(cid:374)thesize dna (cid:449)ithout a pri(cid:373)er: dna synthesis. Sliding clamp binds to dna polymerase to keep it on the template. Leading strand is synthesized towards the replication fork (continuous synthesis) Dna fragments from the lagging strand must be joined together. Dna polymerase iii dissociated and dna polymerase i binds.
