1. Helicase enzyme breaks hydrogen bonds between bases, unzips and unwinds the helix
A protein that catalyzes chemical reactions.
–Helicase begins to unwind the DNA at the ORIGIN OF REPLICATION (a specific DNA nucleotide sequence)
It’s common to only show one strands sequence of bases, since the other can be inferred.
Helicase enzymes move in both directions from the Point of Origin, forming a REPLICATION BUBBLE. At either end of the replication bubble is a REPLICATION FORK, a Y-shaped region
where the new strands of DNA are elongating.
BILL: define terms related to step 1
• Origin of replication
• Helicase
• Single strand binding proteins
• DNA polymerase III
• Enzyme
• 3’ end
• Nucleotides
• Primase
• Primer
• Deoxyribonoucleotides
• Antiparallel
• Replication fork
• Leading strand
• Lagging strand
• Okazaki fragment
• DNA polymerase I
• DNA ligase
2. Single stranded binding proteins hold the DNA strands apart
– Keeps the separated strands apart and stabilize the unwound DNA
BILL: define terms related to step 2
• Origin of replication
• Helicase
• Single strand binding proteins
• DNA polymerase III
• Enzyme
• 3’ end
• Nucleotides
• Primase
• Primer
• Deoxyribonoucleotides
• Antiparallel
• Replication fork
• Leading strand
• Lagging strand
• Okazaki fragment
• DNA polymerase I
• DNA ligase
3. RNA nucleotides bind with complementary base
sequences under the direction of the enzyme RNA primase. These RNA nucleotides act as a primer for DNA nucleotides.
– Primers are short segments of RNA, about 10 nucleotides long
– Must have a primer because DNA polymerase can only add nucleotides to another nucleotide
BILL: define terms related to step 3
• Origin of replication
• Helicase
• Single strand binding proteins
• DNA polymerase III
• Enzyme
• 3’ end
• Nucleotides
• Primase
• Primer
• Deoxyribonoucleotides
• Antiparallel

• DNA ligase
4. DNA polymerase III adds DNA nucleoside
triphosphates to the RNA primer sequence in a 5’ to 3’ direction.

energy
We come with our own energy!
And we leave behind a nucleotide!
Energy of Replication • The nucleotides arrive as nucleosides
– DNA bases with P–P–P • P-P-P = energy for bonding
– DNA bases arrive with their own energy source for bonding
– bonded by enzyme: DNA polymerase III
ATP GTP TTP CTP
