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.
Which strand would be the template for the leading strand?
3-24=7
What are leading strands?
Leading strands are one of the two newly synthesized DNA strands during DNA replication. They are synthesized in a continuous manner in the 5' to 3' direction, following the replication fork. The leading strand is synthesized in the same direction as the replication fork is moving, allowing for continuous synthesis.
What elongates as DNA unwinds and is replicated continuously?
Leading strand
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
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.
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

Which strand (leading or lagging) will have the okazaki fragments?
The lagging strand.
What is the DNA strand that is synthesized continuously during DNA replication?
leading strand

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
Are the leading strand and lagging strand of DNA replication copied in the same direction?
No, both will be synthesized in opposite directions
What elongates as DNA unwinds and is replicated continuously?
Leading strand
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 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
