DNA polymerases exist as dimers associated with the other necessary proteins at the replication fork and this representation is identified as the replisome. The template for the lagging strand is temporarily looped through the replisome such that the DNA polymerases are moving along both strands in the 3'---->5' direction simultaneously for short distances, up to the distance of an Okazaki fragment.
As the replication forks progresses along the template strands, the newly synthesized daughter strands and parental template strands reform a DNA double helix. Hence it is explicit that that only a small stretch of the template duplex is single-stranded at any given time.
The progression of the replication fork requires that the DNA ahead of the fork be continuously unwound. Since the eukaryotic chromosomal DNA is attached to a protein scaffold the progressive movement of the replication fork thus intruding severe torsional stress into the duplex ahead of the fork

What is a polymerase commonly used for?
Polymerase are best know for their role in DNA and RNA replication. The polymerase reads the DNA or RNA strand as a template to synthesize a new strand.
Enzyme used to position nucleotides during DNA replication?
DNA polymerase
What enzyme is used to join DNA nucleotides?
In DNA replication, DNA polymerase III is the enzyme which joins the DNA nucleotides together via phospodiester bonds.DNA Ligase is the enzyme that seals gaps in DNA during DNA Replication.DNA Ligase is the enzyme that seals gaps in DNA during DNA Replication.
What are the four enzymes involved in DNA replication and repair?
DNA polymerase III DNA polymerase I DNA Ligase DNA Helicase
What enzyme builds new DNA strands from existing strands during DNA replication?
DNA Polymerase III is responsible for adding new nucleotides to the strand being synthesised. Also involved in DNA replication are DNA Polymerase I which replaces primers with nucleotides, and DNA Ligase which joins fragments of DNA together.

Principle enzyme involved in DNA replication?
DNA Polymerase.
What chemical is an enzyme that add nucleotides to a new strand of DNA during replication?
DNA Polymerase is the enzyme which adds new nucleotides during replication.
DNA replication is performed by?
DNA polymerase
Enzyme used to position nucleotides during DNA replication?
DNA polymerase
During DNA replication DNA polymerase lands at origination sites and forms?
DNA polymerase is instrumental in DNA elongation as it catalyzes the addition of deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates to the 3 prime end hydroxyl group of the DNA chain. DNA polymerase binds on the origin of replication, and forms a pre-replication complex with other proteins. The replication complex unwinds DNA during replication

What enzyme is involved in DNA replication?
Helicase and DNA polymerase
What is the rule of DNA polymerase in replication?
DO NOT replicate it
What enzyme builds new DNA strands from existing strands during DNA replication?
DNA Polymerase III is responsible for adding new nucleotides to the strand being synthesised. Also involved in DNA replication are DNA Polymerase I which replaces primers with nucleotides, and DNA Ligase which joins fragments of DNA together.
Is the enzyme that allows replication to occur DNA polymerase or RNA polymerase?
DNA polymerase replicated DNA. RNA polymerase creates mRNA to be used in protein synthesis. RNA polymerase does not replicated DNA.
