| WHAT HAPPENS DURING DNA REPLICATION? |
|
Definition
a. Two strands are going to separate—DNA Helicase- uncoils and opens the strands i. What you want to copy is the sequence of the base groups ii. Base groups are vulnerable to damage b. Start copying process— i. Enzyme comes down and lays down a primer ii. RNA primer—laid down by primace c. Semi- Conservative Replication i. DNA polymerase comes in and continues to go until it is done—binds to the primer enzyme ii. Backsides have to wait for a primer to be laid down and a polymerase to come in a pick up the lagging iii. Okazaki fragments—reason for s-phase takes so long d. Another polymerase comes in and does: i. Removes the RNA ii. It synthesizes DNA in its place iii. DNA ligates join the strands |

| RNAP is needed for constructing RNA chains from DNA genes as templates, a process called transcription. RNA polymerase enzymes are essential to life and are found in all organisms and many viruses. In chemical terms, RNAP is a nucleotidyl transferase that polymerizes ribonucleotide at the 3' end of an RNA transcript. |
