About this document
DNA Replication Process Explained by Kurt Bidua is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses the process of DNA replication. It involves initiation, elongation, and termination phases. In initiation, helicase breaks down the hydrogen bonds between nucleotide bases. In elongation, RNA primase attracts RNA nucleotides aided by DNA polymerase to bind to DNA sites on the leading strand, expanding the replication fork. In termination, helicase and DNA polymerase detach from the strands. Remaining RNA primers are removed and gaps are filled in by DNA polymerase and exonuclease.
