    DNA To PROTEIN (BIOCHEM)

    1. DNA replication involves several enzymes that work together to copy DNA. 2. DNA helicase unwinds the DNA double helix. DNA polymerase adds complementary nucleotides to the leading and lagging strands. Okazaki fragments are created on the lagging strand. 3. DNA ligase binds the Okazaki fragments together. Replication is semi-conservative because the parental DNA strands separate and each daughter molecule contains one old and one new strand.

    Identify the structure


    1. DNA HELICASE Enzyme that unwinds DNA
    2. OKAZAKI FRAGMENTS Fragments of copied DNA created on the lagging strand
    3. LEADING STRAND The strand that is copied in a continuous way, from the 3’ to 5’ direction
    4. DNA LIGASE Binds Okazaki fragments
    5. DNA POLYMERASE Builds a new DNA strand by adding complementary bases
    6. SINGLE STRAND BINDING PROTEIN Stabilizes the DNA molecule during replication
    7. LAGGING STRAND Strand that is copied discontinuously because it is traveling away from helicase
    8. DNA PRIMASE Initiates the synthesis DNA by creating a short RNA segment at replication fork

    9. Place the events in the correct order:


    4 DNA polymerase adds nucleotides in the 5’ to 3’ direction
    2 Replication fork is formed
    3 DNA polymerase attaches to the primer
    5 Okazaki fragments are bound together by ligase
    1 DNA helicase unwinds DNA

    10. Why is replication called “semi-conservative?”


    The procedure of replication is termed as semi-conservative since two copies of the DNA molecule that
    originated are made and each copy maintain the data half of the original DNA molecule.
