DNA Replication Replication is semi-conservative (one strand is old, one strand new) Each strand serves as a template (or pattern) for the new strand
5
Origins of Replication Where DNA Replication starts Differs between organisms –Prokaryotes = 1 origin of replication –Eukaryotes = many different origins of replication
6
General Process of DNA Replication Step 1: –DNA Helicase separates the DNA helix Step 2: –DNA Polymerase III builds the new strand of DNA
8
-Nitrogenous bases are located in the cytoplasm -They enter the nucleus through the pores in the nuclear membrane
11
Thymine is added accidentally. DNA polymerase cuts the damaged DNA. The proper base is added. Ligase joins the two spots.
12
DNA Ligase –Forms covalent bonds between nucleotides to create a continuous strand of DNA –When DNA Polymerase I edits the DNA strand, DNA Ligase attaches the bases on one side of the DNA strand together.
14
DNA Replication Replicate the following DNA strand: A – G – G – C – T – T – C – A – G – T T – C – C – G – A – A – G – T – C - A
