1
New cards

Replisome

DNA polymerase, primase, helicase, clamp

2
New cards

Topoisomerases

Relieve supercoiling by breaking Dna allowing DNA to rotate and uncoil

3
New cards

Helicase

Unwinds the DNA double helix at the fork

4
New cards

Primase

Adds RNA primer

5
New cards

Okazaki Fragments

Short sequences of DNA synthesized on the lagging strand during DNA replication.

6
New cards

DNA Pol I

Removes RNA primase and fills in the gap with complementary DNA

7
New cards

DNA ligase

Joins the Okazaki fragments of the lagging strand together
