Eukaryotic DNA Replication• Step 1 – Helicase unwinds and unzips the DNA
molecule.

• Step 2 – DNA Polymerase adds on complementary nucleotides in a 5’ to 3’ direction.

• Step 3 – The lagging strand continues to replicate in fragments instead of continually like the leading strand.

• Step 4 – Since the fragments still aren’t joined, the enzyme ligase, joins the fragments.

• Step 5 – As replication continues, the leading and lagging strand twist back into their helical form.

Telomeres• Are the tips of chromosomes that make it less
likely important genes will be lost with replication.

Prokaryotic DNA Replication
• Starts at a single point, and proceeds in 2 directions until the entire chromosome is copied.
