Enzyme - Helicase unzips double-stranded DNA helix by breaking hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs, separating into single strands
20
Enzyme - Primase attaches RNA primers to DNA, starting point for DNA polymerase
SSB proteins attach to unzipped DNA, stops from joining back together.
Topoisomerase relaxes DNA helix from super-coiled structure
21
DNA polymerase builds new DNA strands by adding new nucleotides. Can only build in the 5′ to 3′ direction. Creating a leading and lagging strand
22
Enzyme - Ligase joins or glues DNA fragments together
Exonuclease removes primers, they are made of RNA. DNA polymerase replaces them with DNA nucleotides
23
Second type of DNA polymerase scans DNA for any errors and fixes any found
