​

​Enzyme - Helicase unzips double-stranded DNA helix by breaking hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs, separating into single strands

​

​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

​

​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

​

​Enzyme - Ligase joins or glues DNA fragments together

​

​Exonuclease removes primers, they are made of RNA. DNA polymerase replaces them with DNA nucleotides

​

​Second type of DNA polymerase scans DNA for any errors and fixes any found
