The Biochemical Reactions. 1  DNA replication begins with the unzipping of the parent molecule as the hydrogen bonds between the base pairs are broken. 2  Once exposed, the sequence of bases on each of the separated strands serves as a template to guide the insertion of a complementary set of bases on the strand being synthesized.
DNA helicase unzip, or separate, a strand of DNA at positions called origins. This means that the hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs are removed (DNA is double stranded!). When they separate double-stranded DNA into single strands, it allows each strand to be copied (replication).
