Exercise 2

DNA Replication. Sketch a replication fork of bacterial DNA in which one strand is being replicated discontinuously and the other is being replicated continuously. List six different enzyme activities associated with the replication process, identify the function of each activity, and show where each would be located on the replication fork. In addition, identify the following features on your sketch: DNA template, RNA primer, Okazaki fragments, and single-stranded DNA binding protein.
