Concept explainers
To determine: The movement of primase in the lagging strand in figure 11.19.
Introduction: The process of formation of daughter strands from DNA strands is termed as replication of DNA. The enzyme RNA primer initiates the synthesis of daughter DNA strands from the template strand. The RNA primer is synthesized by an enzyme known as DNA primase. Two strands are synthesized by this enzyme. One is the leading strand while the other is the lagging strand.
To determine: Whether primase moves from left to right or from right to left.

To determine: The way in which primase must move after it is done making a primer and has to start making the next primer at a new location.
