Modeling DNA Replication
DNA replication is the process used by cells to synthesize an identical strand of DNA prior to cell division. The double-stranded helix is split open in the middle breaking the hydrogen bonds holding the two strands together. This creates a replication bubble. An enzyme, DNA polymerase, uses each strand as a template to synthesize a new, complementary strand of DNA. Each strand of the original double helix will act as a template so the two new double-stranded pieces of DNA will each have one old strand and one new strand. This is called semi-conservative replication and can be seen in the model by the original strand being created with gray pieces while the new DNA will be synthesized with colored pieces.
1.
Begin with the DNA Replication model. You will need the two DNA polymerases (ovals with gray foam). First, make the double-stranded DNA template with the gray DNA nucleotides by aligning them with the colored template printed on the poster.
You might be asking yourself, how can the DNA polymerase synthesize a new complementary strand of DNA when the template is a tightly bound double helix? Excellent question! Another enzyme, called helicase, helps by breaking the hydrogen
bonds that hold the two strands together. Let’s see how that works.
2.
Move the whole DNA molecule up and feed it into the helicase allowing the pointed part of the helicase to break apart the “hydrogen bonds” holding the DNA
molecule together.
3.
When about 10 nucleotides of single-stranded DNA has exited the helicase, assemble the DNA polymerases on the DNA in the correct orientation so that nucleotides can be added in the active site (Hint: they will face opposite directions). Now begin to synthesize a new strand of DNA that is complementary to the template. For these nucleotides, use the colored DNA nucleotides (make sure they have the rounded bottoms – the nucleotides with corners are RNA in this model).
Due to the fact that there is directionality to molecules of DNA, that replication always
occurs in the 5’ to 3’ direction, and that the two strands of the double helix are antiparallel (in opposite directions), DNA replication occurs slightly differently depending on which strand is the template. On one strand, the leading strand, DNA replication can occur in a continuous manner because the direction of replication is the same direction the replication fork is moving. On the other strand, the lagging strand, short pieces of DNA are synthesized at a time and then these fragments (called Okazaki fragments) are joined together to create a continuous molecule of DNA.
4.
Identify the leading and lagging strand. Notice how one polymerase can stay stationary and still have a flow of nucleotides going past the active site while the other DNA polymerase has to move along the DNA to add new nucleotides at the
active site.
5.
Continue until you’ve synthesized at least 20 nucleotides of the new strands for the DNA molecule in the active site. Now that you have the right idea, fill in the top strand until you have a completely replicated strand of DNA. You can join the Okazaki fragments together on the bottom strand.
Write the sequence of DNA for the top strand below.
