February 12, 2011 - Track & Field Menâs and Womenâs Track and Field Top Yale, Fall to Princeton at HYP Meet In its final meet before the Heptagonal Championships, the Harvard track and field team turned in a pair of second-place finishes at the annual HYP...
An Okazaki fragment is a relatively short fragment of DNA (with an RNA primer at the 5' terminus) created on the lagging strand during DNA replication. It was originally discovered in 1968 by Reiji Okazaki, Tsuneko Okazaki, and their colleagues while studying replication of bacteriophage DNA in Escherichia coli.
Adding nucleotides to the lagging strand Enzyme: primase (produces primers at each Okazaki fragment), DNA polymerase I and III 5. Rejoining the strands Enzyme: DNA ligase (rejoins the Okazaki fragments) Here is an image of the summary of DNA replication: http://course1.winona.edu/sberg/ILLUST/D...nswers. Best Answer: 1. Untwisting the DNA strand and forming a replication fork Enzyme: helicase (unwinds the strands), single-strand binding proteins to help stabilize the strand 2.
