Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

DNA replication begins at origins, which are specific sequences on the DNA molecule where replication machinery can bind and begin the process of copying the DNA. Promoters are sequences that direct the initiation of transcription in RNA synthesis, initiators are proteins that bind to DNA to start DNA replication, and Okazaki fragments are small fragments of DNA that are synthesized discontinuously on the lagging strand during DNA replication.
