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 Polymerase. Just as helicase is responsible for unwinding the DNA strand, DNA polymerase is responsible for replicating the strand once it unwinds and separates. DNA is made up of a sugar-phosphate ladder and a nucleotide base.s the DNA strand separates, the DNA polymerase matches nucleotide bases that are missing when the strand separates. Most DNA polymerase also has the ability to correct errors in the strand. As there is more than one type of helicase, there is also more than one type of polymerase.
