DNA ReplicationDNA Replication
Priming:Priming:
1.1. RNA primersRNA primers: before new DNA strands can : before new DNA strands can form, there must be small pre-existing form, there must be small pre-existing primers (RNA) primers (RNA) present to start the addition of present to start the addition of new nucleotides new nucleotides (DNA Polymerase)(DNA Polymerase)..
2.2. PrimasePrimase: enzyme that polymerizes : enzyme that polymerizes (synthesizes) the (synthesizes) the RNA PrimerRNA Primer..
1818
This DNA polymerase replaces the RNA primer with DNA. This is a different type of DNA polymerase from the main DNA polymerase which synthesises DNA on a DNA template.
Another DNA polymerase:
1919
In E. coli the main enzyme is DNA polymerase III .And the enzyme that replaces the RNA primer with DNA is DNA polymerase I. When the RNA primer has been replaced with DNA, there is a gap between the two Okazaki fragments and this is sealed by DNA ligase.
2020
DNA ligase seals the gap left between Okazaki fragments after the primer is removed. As the Okazaki fragments are joined, the new lagging strand becomes longer and longer.
DNA ligase:
Location: At the replication fork. Function: Unwinds the DNA double helix.
Helicase:
2121
Location: On the template strands.
Function: Synthesizes new DNA in the 5' to 3' direction using the base information on the template strand to specify the nucleotide to insert on the new chain. Also does some proofreading; that is, it checks that the new nucleotide being added to the chain carries the correct base as specified by the template DNA.
DNA polymerase:
2222
The new DNA strand made discontinuously in the direction opposite to the direction in which the replication fork is moving.
The new DNA strand made continuously in the same direction as movement of the replication fork.
Lagging Strand:
Leading strand:
2323
If an incorrect base pair is formed, DNA polymerase can delete the new nucleotide and try again. In E. coli the enzyme used for all new DNA synthesis except for the replacement of the RNA primers is DNA polymerase III. DNA polymerase I replaces the primers.
2424
Location: On the template strand which dictates new DNA synthesis away from the direction of replication fork movement.
Okazaki fragment:
2525
Function: A building block for DNA synthesis of the lagging strand. On one template strand, DNA polymerase synthesizes new DNA in a direction away from the replication fork movement. Because of this, the new DNA synthesized on that template is made in a discontinuous fashion; each segment is called an Okazaki fragment.
2626
Location: Wherever the synthesis of a new DNA fragment is to commence. Function: DNA polymerase cannot start the synthesis of a new DNA chain, it can only extend a nucleotide chain primer. Primase synthesizes a short RNA chain that is used as the primer for DNA synthesis by DNA polymerase.
Primase:
2727
Location: On single-stranded DNA near the replication fork. Function: Binds to single-stranded DNA to make it stable.
Single-strand binding (SSB) proteins

Semiconservative model of DNA replication (Fig. 3.2)
3636
1955: Arthur Kornberg
Worked with E. coli. Discovered the mechanisms of DNA synthesis.
Four components are required:
1. dNTPs: dATP, dTTP, dGTP, dCTP(deoxyribonucleoside 5’-triphosphates)(sugar-base + 3 phosphates)
2. DNA template
3. DNA polymerase (Kornberg enzyme)
4. Mg 2+ (optimizes DNA polymerase activity)
1959: Arthur Kornberg (Stanford University) & Severo Ochoa (NYU)
3737
Three main features of the DNA synthesis reaction:
1. DNA polymerase I catalyzes formation of phosphodiester bondbetween 3’-OH of the deoxyribose (on the last nucleotide) and the 5’-phosphate of the dNTP.
• Energy for this reaction is derived from the release of two of the three phosphates.
2. DNA polymerase “finds” the correct complementary dNTP at each step in the lengthening process.
• rate ≤ 800 dNTPs/second• low error rate
3. Direction of synthesis is 5’ to 3’
3838
DNA elongation

Eukaryotic enzymes:
Five DNA polymerases from mammals.
Polymerase (alpha): nuclear, DNA replication, no proofreading
Polymerase (beta): nuclear, DNA repair, no proofreading
Polymerase (gamma): mitochondria, DNA repl., proofreading
Polymerase (delta): nuclear, DNA replication, proofreading
4343
Polymerase (epsilon): nuclear, DNA repair (?), proofreading
Different polymerases for nucleus and mtDNA
Some polymerases proofread; others do not.
Some polymerases used for replication; others for repair
4444
Origin of replication (e.g., the prokaryote example):
Begins with double-helix denaturing into single-strands thus exposing the bases.
Exposes a replication bubble from which replication proceeds in both directions.
4545
Initiation of replication, major elements:
Segments of single-stranded DNA are called template strands.
Gyrase (a type of topoisomerase) relaxes the supercoiled DNA.
Initiator proteins and DNA helicase binds to the DNA at the replication fork and untwist the DNA using energy derived from ATP (adenosine triphosphate).(Hydrolysis of ATP causes a shape change in DNA helicase)
DNA primase next binds to helicase producing a complex called a primosome (primase is required for synthesis),
4646
Primase synthesizes a short RNA primer of 10-12 nucleotides, to which DNA polymerase III adds nucleotides.
Polymerase III adds nucleotides 5’ to 3’ on both strands beginning at the RNA primer.
The RNA primer is removed and replaced with DNA by polymerase I, and the gap is sealed with DNA ligase.
Single-stranded DNA-binding (SSB) proteins (>200) stabilize the single-stranded template DNA during the process.
4747
4848
DNA replication is continuous on the leading strand and semidiscontinuous on the lagging strand:
Unwinding of any single DNA replication fork proceeds in one direction.
The two DNA strands are of opposite polarity, and DNA polymerases only synthesize DNA 5’ to 3’.
Solution: DNA is made in opposite directions on each template.
•Leading strand synthesized 5’ to 3’ in the direction of the replication fork movement.
continuous
requires a single RNA primer
•Lagging strand synthesized 5’ to 3’ in the opposite direction.
semidiscontinuous (i.e., not continuous)
requires many RNA primers

Concepts and terms to understand:
Why are gyrase and helicase required?
The difference between a template and a primer?
The difference between primase and polymerase?
What is a replication fork and how many are there?
Why are single-stranded binding (SSB) proteins required?
How does synthesis differ on leading strand and lagging strand?
Which is continuous and semi-discontinuous?
What are Okazaki fragments?

Replication of circular DNA in
E. coli (3.10):
1. Two replication forks result in a theta-like () structure.
2. As strands separate, positive supercoils form elsewhere in the molecule.
3. Topoisomerases relieve tensions in the supercoils, allowing the DNA to continue to separate.
6161
Rolling circle model of DNA replication (3.11):
1. Common in several bacteriophages including .
2. Begins with a nick at the origin of replication.
3. 5’ end of the molecule is displaced and acts as primer for DNA synthesis.
4. Can result in a DNA molecule many multiples of the genome length (and make multiple copies quickly).
5. During viral assembly the DNA is cut into individual viral chromosomes.
6262
DNA replication in eukaryotes:
Copying each eukaryotic chromosome during the S phase of the cell cycle presents some challenges:
Major checkpoints in the system
1. Cells must be large enough, and the environment favorable.
2. Cell will not enter the mitotic phase unless all the DNA has replicated.
3. Chromosomes also must be attached to the mitotic spindle for mitosis to complete.
4. Checkpoints in the system include proteins call cyclins and enzymes called cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks).
6363
• Each eukaryotic chromosome is one linear DNA double helix
• Average ~108 base pairs long
• With a replication rate of 2 kb/minute, replicating one human chromosome would require ~35 days.
• Solution ---> DNA replication initiates at many different sites simultaneously.
Fig. 3.14
6464
Fig. 3.13 - Replication forks visible in Drosophila
6565
(or telomeres What about the ends ) of linear chromosomes?
DNA polymerase/ligase cannot fill gap at end of chromosome after RNA primer is removed. this gap is not filled, chromosomes would become shorter each round of replication!
Solution:
1. Eukaryotes have tandemly repeated sequences at the ends of their chromosomes.
2. Telomerase (composed of protein and RNA complementary to the telomere repeat) binds to the terminal telomere repeat and catalyzes the addition of of new repeats.
3. Compensates by lengthening the chromosome.
4. Absence or mutation of telomerase activity results in chromosome shortening and limited cell division.

Final Step - Assembly into Nucleosomes:
• As DNA unwinds, nucleosomes must disassemble.
• Histones and the associated chromatin proteins must be duplicated by new protein synthesis.
• Newly replicated DNA is assembled into nucleosomes almost immediately.
• Histone chaperone proteins control the assembly.
