Draw a labelled schematic sketch of replication fork of DNA. Explain the role of the enzymes inolved in DNA replication.

Eukaryotes differ from prokaryotes in the mechanism of DNA replication due to

Consider the following events in DNA replication 1. Formation of RNA primers by RNA polymerase. 2. Removal of RNA primers and formation of Okazaki fragments. Formation of DNA strands on RNA primers by DNA poly III complex. 4. Recognition of initiation point by initiator protein. 5. Dissociation of hydrogen bonds and opening of a 'bubbles' in the duplex by unwinding proteins. 6. Filling up of the gaps between Okazaki fragments and formation of DNA strand. The correct sequence of these events is:-

Go through the following statements: (i) a typical nucleosome contains 400 bp of DNA helix. (ii) The positively charged DNA is wrapped around the negatively charged histoned octamer to form a structure called nucleosome. (iii) Histones are rich in the basic amino acid residues asparagine ad valine (iv) The packaging of chromatin at higher level requires additional set of proteins that collectively are referred to as nonhistone chromosomal proteins.
