Presentation Transcript

  1. Exonuclease Activities of DNA Polymerases

  2. Initiation of Replication *Strands must separate •DnaA •Helicases (DnaB and DnaC) •SSBPs (Single Stranded Binding Proteins) •DNA gyrase (topoisomerase)

  3. Initiation of Replication *Primase

  4. The sliding clamp

  5. The two strands of a double helix are antiparallel •Continuous DNA synthesis = leading strand •Discontinuous DNA synthesis = lagging strand

  6. DNA Synthesis

  7. DNA Synthesis

  8. DNA Synthesis

  9. Completing the process

  10. DNA Synthesis •Eukaryotes •DNA unwinds at a replication origin •Two replication forks form •Bidirectional synthesis of DNA •Much more DNA; complexed with proteins •Eukaryotes have much more DNA •Yeast 4X that of E. coli •Drosophila 100X that of E. coli •Solution: Multiple replication origins •Yeast 250-400 replicons •Mammalian cells up to 25,000
