What is a okazaki fragment?
Okazaki fragments are only used on the Lagging strand (the one going on 5' to 3' direction) never on the leading one. In fact all that the leading strand uses is the helicase to unwind DNA and DNA polimerase III to form the complementary strand allways in 3' to 5' (the leading strand) direction. The big problem of the laggind strand and the reason that Okazaki fragments exist and all other complementary DNAs (polimerace I, ligase, SSB, primace) is that it runs from 3' to 5'. Now what Okazaki fragments are, is temporary pieces of complementary DNA (iniciated by a primer)that are not joined together, but that later on before it goes back to the helix form will be joined togather by DNA ligase. Here I attache a link to a flash video that will make u understand better! http://www.mcb.harvard.edu/Losick/images/TromboneFINALd.swf
Which of the following removes the RNA nucleotides from the primer and adds equivalent DNA nucleotides to the 3' end of Okazaki fragments?
DNA polymerase I removes the RNA nucleotides from the primer and adds equivalent DNA nucleotides to the 3' end of Okazaki fragments in prokaryotes.
How long are the base pairs of Okazaki fragments?
Okazaki fragments are typically around 100-200 base pairs long in prokaryotes and around 1000-2000 base pairs long in eukaryotes.
What are the small segments synthesized in the lagging strand of DNA?
Okazaki fragments are the small DNA fragments synthesized on the lagging strand during DNA replication. They are later joined together by DNA ligase to form a continuous strand.
Which strand (leading or lagging) will have the okazaki fragments?
The lagging strand will have the Okazaki fragments. These short fragments are created as the DNA replication machinery synthesizes the new DNA strand discontinuously in the 5'-3' direction away from the replication fork.
Which of the following statements about okazaki fragment in e coli is true?
They are formed on the lagging strand of DNA.
Do you capitalize a sentence fragment following a colon?
You should not capitalize a sentence fragment following a colon.
What was the contribution of reiji and tuneko okazaki and colleagues with regard to these replication models?
Reiji and Tsuneko Okazaki, along with colleagues, discovered short DNA fragments called Okazaki fragments that are synthesized discontinuously during DNA replication on the lagging strand. Their work helped to elucidate the process of DNA replication and how it occurs on both the leading and lagging strands, leading to the development of the Okazaki fragment model for DNA replication.

Does the following item contain a fragment?
I'm happy to help! Please provide the item you would like me to check for a fragment.
What is the birth name of Bob Okazaki?
Bob Okazaki's birth name is Iwao Robert Okazaki.
What is the birth name of Oliver Okazaki?
Oliver Okazaki's birth name is Oliver Kenji Okazaki.
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
