On the replication schematic shown above using arrow(s) indicate the position(s) of the replication fork(s). Within region 1, which strand will be used as the template for leading strand DNA synthesis, the top or bottom? b. Bottom c. If a lagging strand fragment is produced from region 1, what will be its sequence? Indicate the 5' and 3' ends. Produed" d. You notice that Okazaki fragments created during DNA replication were not linked into a continuous strand. The gene for which enzyme would you predict was altered by a mutation? onh Ljse asc

Explanation / Answer

Answer

Lagging strand is synthesis from upper parental strand. The upper strand sequence in Region 1 is 5'-GTCATGACG-3'

Actually the lagging starnd synthesis from top 3' to 5' direction is 5'-CAGTACTGC-3'

But the sequence in complementary is in region 1 is 3'CGTCATGAC-5'
