Cell Bio Chap 6

must accurately copy its genome before it can divide to produce two daughter cells

What do each strand of DNA act as for replication?

• Guideline

• Template

• Daughter strand

• Origin of replicatation

DNA Replication is

Steps of Replication

• Initiator Proteins bind to replication origins

• Unzip the DNA by breaking H-bonds

• Zip the DNA back up

• Other proteins join to carry out replication

Is the new synthesized DNA is inside or outside the Replication forks

• Inside

• Outside

Two replication forks form at each replication origin

• True

• False

Which direction does replication happen

• 5' to 3'

• bidirectional

• 3' to 5'

• monodirectional

Binds to DNA and travels 5' to 3' using ATP to separate strand and move fork forward

Releases additional coiling ahead of replication fork

Keep parental strands open to act as templates
