The linking of the 5’ end of one Okazaki fragment with the 3’ end of an adjacent Okazaki fragment occurs by means of
(a) DNA polymerase I (b) DNA polymerase III (c) DNA ligase (d) DNA topoisomerase (e) Primase
Which of the following best explains the production of Okazaki fragments in replicating DNA
(a) DNA is stressed when it unwinds (b) DNA is anti-parallel and can only be synthesized 5’ to 3’ (c) DNA contains once less oxygen in its sugar while RNA has an OH attached to its 2’ carbon (d) Template strands are complementary and have a tendency to reform hydrogen bonds (e) both a and d
What is the purpose of the dideoxynucleotide triphosphates in the Sanger sequencing reaction?
A) The ddNTP prevents the denatured DNA in a sequencing reaction from re-forming a double helix.
B
The ddNTP terminates synthesis on a strand after it is incorporated by DNA polymerase.
(C) The ddNTP acts as a catalyst for the DNA polymerase during in vitro DNA replication.
The ddNTP is necessary to act as a primer in a sequencing reaction.
