The polymerase involved in leading strand synthesis is DNA polymerase III. replication of the lagging strand is more complicated as compared to that of the leading. Essential Biochemistry - DNA Replication This makes the speed of lagging strand synthesis much lower than that of the leading strand. During lagging strand synthesis, DNA ligase I connects the Okazaki. During DNA replication. The other half of the DNA double helix, known as the lagging strand. Choose a 3-D animation by name: DNA Molecule: Note: The Trombone model section of this animation is slow to begin. Please be patient as it is 15s before the text changes, then about 37s before the animated part. bind to the single-stranded DNA to initiate DNA synthesis by the. DNA replication of the leading and. DNA replication of the leading and lagging strand. Basic explanation of leading vs. lagging strand replication. vs. lagging strand replication during DNA synthesis. DNA Replication Animation. two DNA polymerases collaborate to copy the leading-strand template and the lagging-strand. DNA replication animation by interact Medical. DNA Replication Animation- McGraw Hill DNA replication of one helix of DNA results in two identical helices. Because synthesis on the lagging strand takes place in a backstitching mechanism.
