DNA Replication

  • Step 1

    It is "unzipping" the double-helix structure of DNA. (Helicase)
  • Step 2

    Breaks the hydrogen bonds holding the complementary bases of DNA together. Primase and DNA polymerase adding the mtching nucleotides.
  • Step 3

    After ligase has bonded the new nucleotides, each DNA strand serves as a template for new DNA strand.
