DNA serves as a template for its own synthesis-semiconservative

replication

The pol has exonuclease activity which we previously talked

About, involved in mismatch repair, called more specifically

DNA polymerase requires a PRIMER WHICH IS MADE

FROM RNA BY RNA PRIMASE!!! BOTH STRANDS

THE PRIMERS ARE EVENTUALLY REMOVED

Figure 5-11 Molecular Biology of the Cell (© Garland Science 2008)

No

primer

required

for RNA primase

For Advanced

Consideration

Why doesn’t

DNA extend

from the 5’

end?

It has to do

with phosphates

and proofreading

Thymine has no amino group

Explain:

1.5’-3’ and its relevance to strand synthesis

2.RNA primase activity

3.Okazaki fragments

4.Proofreading

5.Helicase

6.Leading versus lagging strand synthesis

7.Semiconservative replication of dna
