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 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.
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.
Which strand in dna synthesis is created in pieces?
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.
What is the name of the strand that replicates in a direction toward the replication fork?
Lagging 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
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.
Is it true Elongation of the lagging string does not require a template strand?
Yes, it is true that the elongation of the lagging strand during DNA replication does not require a template strand in the same way that the leading strand does. While the lagging strand is synthesized in short fragments called Okazaki fragments, each fragment is initiated by an RNA primer, which provides the necessary 3' hydroxyl group for DNA polymerase to extend the strand. However, the synthesis of these fragments is still directed by the template strand to ensure accurate base pairing.
Are the leading strand and lagging strand of DNA replication copied in the same direction?
No, both will be synthesized in opposite directions
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.
What is okazaki?
okazaki fragments are new pieces of Dna On the lagging strand
