Document Summary

Buildi(cid:374)g dna: alwa(cid:455)s (cid:271)uilt i(cid:374) the 5" to 3" direction: built with the help of a large family of dna polymerase enzymes, polymerases bring in nucleotide subunits needed to build dna. Incoming nucleotides are accepted only if they are the correct base pair with the template: the 5" high e(cid:374)erg(cid:455) phosphate of the i(cid:374)(cid:272)o(cid:373)i(cid:374)g (cid:374)u(cid:272)leotide is added to the 3" oh at the end of the growing strand. 5" to 3" dire(cid:272)tio(cid:374: lagging strand: primers have to be consecutively added down in order for the. Proof reading: dna polymerase also is able to proof read its work as it operates. If an incoming nucleotide has the correct base = perfect alignment: enables the nucleotide to be added via hydrogen bond. If an incoming nucleotide has the wrong base = alignment is off: polymerase will remove this incorrect nucleotide and replace it, prevents mutations being created every time dna replicates. Dna templates: allows dna polymerase to finish replicating all important genes.
