At each replication fork one new strand of DNA is made of many small pieces what is the strand of DNA?
The lagging stand~Brainly
Does dna ligase help assemble the leading strand?
Not in general replication as the leading strand is replicated straight away. The lagging strand is replicated in pieces that need ligase to affix them, one to the other. However, in a replication bubble, when a lagging strand runs into a leading strand, and later the primers are replaced, ligase is still needed. Therefore, technically, the leading strand does need the ligase once.
Is RNA polymerase used in both leading and lagging strands of DNA replication?
the leading strand is synthesized in the same direction as the movement of the replication fork, and the lagging strand is synthesized in the opposite direction
What fragments are sections of DNA made on the lagging strand?
okazaki fregments
What is ligase?
This enzyme is used on the lagging strand of DNA and seals the lagging strand to its daughter strand in order to create another double helix DNA
Which strand in dna synthesis is created in pieces?
The lagging strand
What is lagging strand in replication of DNA?
The two strands of DNA in animal cells are arranged backwards to each other - the start of one is paired with the ending of the other. However, the enzyme that replicates DNA (DNA polymerase) can only work from start to finish. On one strand, DNA polymerase can work front to back in a continuous chain - the strand that allows this is called the leading strand because it "leads" in completion status. On the other strand, the DNA polymerase has to work backwards in pieces and then put the pieces back together into a single chain - the strand that causes this is called the lagging strand because it "lags behind" the other in completion status.
What is okazaki?
okazaki fragments are new pieces of Dna On the lagging strand
At each replication fork one new strand of DNA is made of many small pieces what is the strand of DNA?
The lagging stand~Brainly
What is the molecule that seals the gaps between the pieces of DNA in the lagging strand is?
ligase
Which strand (leading or lagging) will have the okazaki fragments?
The lagging strand.
There is a y shaped replication fork on each side of each replication bubble what are the sides of the replication fork called?
One is known as the Leading strand, and the other is known as the Lagging strand.
What is the definition of a lagging strand?
A lagging strand is one of two strands of DNA found at the replication fork, or junction, in the double helix; the other strand is called the leading strand. A lagging strand requires a slight delay before undergoing replication, and it must undergo replication discontinuously in small fragments.
Where does ssb protein bind on lagging strand or on leading strand?
ssb protein bind to the lagging strand as leading strand is invovled in dna replication and lagging strand is invovled in okazaki fragment formation
Why does Dna have both leading and lagging Strands?
The lagging strand is called the lagging strand because, unlike the leading strand, DNA polymerase can not replicate in a 5' to 3' uninterrupted flow on this strand. Remember, DNA has two strands that run ANTIPARALLEL, one to the other; in other words they run in opposite directions.
Is The lagging strand the strands of parental DNA?
which statement about dna replication is correct? A. the leading strand is one of the strands of parnetal Dna b. the leading strand is built continuously, and the lagging strand is built in pieces c. the lagging strand is one of the strands of parental Dna d. Dna ligase helps assemble the leading strand e. the lagging strand is built continuously
What are the fragments making up the noncontinuous strand called?
If you are referring to the fragmented lagging strand for DNA replication, the fragments are called Okazaki fragments.
