Chapter 16 - Coggle Diagram

- - - - A protein that binds to the unpaired DNA strands during DNA replication, stabilizing them and holding them apart while they serve as templates for the synthesis of complementary strands of DNA.
    - - Happens at the end of the replication bubble. It is a Y-shaped region on a replicating DNA molecule where the parental strands are being unwound and new strands are being synthesized.
    - - An enzyme that untwists the double helix of DNA at replication forks, separating the two strands and making them available as template strands.
    - - An enzyme that joins RNA nucleotides to make a primer during DNA replication, using the parental DNA strand as a template.
- - - - The 2 parental strands re-associate after acting as templates for new strands, thus restoring the parental double helix.
    - - The 2 strands of the parental molecule separates, and each function as a template for synthesis of a new, complementary strand.
    - - Each strand of both daughter molecules, contains a mixture of old and newly synthesized DNA.
- - - - Found in the lagging strand
      - It is a short segment of DNA synthesized away from the replication fork on a template strand during DNA replication. Many such segments are joined together to make up the lagging strand of newly synthesized DNA.
