DNA Replication Simply Explained!
What is DNA replication, how does it occur in eukaryotes and prokaryotes, and which enzymes are involved? You'll learn all this here. More videos at https://studyflix.de/. When our cells divide due to growth or reproduction, the cell nucleus must also divide. Before nuclear division takes place, an identical copy of the DNA must first be made. This process can also be called DNA duplication or DNA replication. Numerous enzymes are needed for this. The DNA, which normally exists as a double helix, must be unwound, and the respective hydrogen bonds between the individual DNA base pairs must be broken. You can imagine this like opening a zipper. The two exposed single strands each serve as a template for a new DNA strand to be produced. A DNA building block with the corresponding matching base can then attach to each broken base. This process creates two identical DNA double strands, one half of which is derived from the original DNA and the other half of which is newly synthesized.
