Studied by 1 personHelicase
unwinds helix strand and exposes the bases
Primace
Puts RNA primers to match DNA bases, says where DNA replication should occur
DNA polymerase III
attaches to RNA primer to make the right bases and create new change
DNA polymerase I
get rid of primers and replaces w/ DNA
Ligase
completes sugar/phosphate backbones w/ strong covalent bonds and seals any gaps from okazaki fragments
