Leading strand vs. lagging strand

[@HeyImLucious]

For 300k views, I'd expect it to be more indepth. But I guess the title is serious- only focusing on leading v lagging strands. For those who have exams coming and are looking for full info: * DNA synthesis uses semi-conservative replication, meaning the newly synthesized (created) strand is made from a parent strand of DNA (the strand that was separated by DNA helicase). * At the start, DNA topoisomerases and DNA helicases (there are many different types of these enzymes, for simplicity I'll just refer to their group name) bind to the target DNA and begin to "unravel" it. DNA helicase binds to a specific place called the Origin of Replication and unwinds it then separates the strands so other proteins and enzymes can fit in and attach. This separation creates the replication fork/bubble mentioned in the video. * An origin of replication is just a specific sequence of nucleotides that acts as an indicator saying "start replication here!" * After the helicases and topoisomerases have opened up the parent strand of DNA- Primase attaches to the origin and synthesizes complimentary RNA bases. This RNA sequence is called a "primer", it is needed because DNA Polymerases can only add to existing DNA strands. * DNA polymerases (there are many types that do different functions) are enzymes that synthesize complimentary DNA strands. These enzymes are made of many subunits that do specific jobs throughout replication, these subunits activate and deactivate throughout replication when they are needed. (You *shouldn't* need to know the individual subunits of each polymerase for a normal exam, however if you do feel free to reply and I can go into a little more depth ^_^) * DNA replication follows a 5' to 3' direction of replication. The 5' and 3' indicate which carbon we are talking about in the sugar molecule (remember: nucleotides are made of sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base). The 5' carbon is attached to the phosphate group The 3' carbon is where the the phosphate group of *another* nucleotide will bond- creating a chain of DNA So, the 5' end will always terminate with a phosphate group and the 3' end will always terminate with a sugar molecule. * This is where the actual video begins. However a few important parts are missing. The lagging strand loops around itself so both the leading and lagging strands are pointing the same direction (5'-3')- this allows simultaneous replication of both strands. Also, while replication is happening, the topoisomerases play another important role. It moves ahead of the replication fork/bubble and breaks the bonds between the parent strands, twists the DNA, and then rebinds the two strands. During replication the DNA strands become more and more strained due to (1) the helicases unwinding and (2) the twisting done by the lagging strand. Topoisomerases relieve the tension and prevents DNA from snapping under the pressure. * The polymerases will also "proof-read" the placed bases to make sure every Adenine is bonded to a Thymine and every Guanine is bonded to a Cytosine. This goes on until replication ends (because either a STOP sequence is reached or the parent DNA strand ends). The cell still needs to deal with the RNA primers at the start of the leading strand and scattered throughout the lagging strand. A polymerase (remember: there are many types of DNA Polymerase enzymes) then removes the primers and replaces them with the correct DNA bases. * After all the RNA is replaced with DNA, ligase comes in and anneals the Okazaki fragments together and the two newly replicated strands bond to form a new copy of DNA. That should be enough info for a quick and exhaustive summary to help with any exams! Also, a few notes. (1) I'm only talking about bDNA. (2) I specifically talk about eukaryotic DNA replication. While eukaryotic and prokaryotic DNA replication are both very similar, they have important distinctions such as: * Prokaryotic DNA is circular and only has one origin of replication * Prok. DNA is larger than Euk. DNA (EDIT: my brain broke for a second here- *Euk. DNA is larger than Prok. DNA.* Sorry!) * There are replication proteins and enzymes unique to both eukaryotic and prokaryotic replication. (3) In order for replication to actually begin, there are specific requirements that must be fulfilled such as all dNTP nucleosides being present and the necessary enzymes/proteins, among other criteria. ~ Source: Pre-med student Good luck! =D

[@shifazahid8430]

thanks alot... can you tell me a little more?? plus i didn't get how prokaryotic dna is larger than eukaryotic?

[@shifazahid8430]

plus i wanna know abt individual enzymes..

[@MG-kj2yz]

+UnderoathLambofgod Thank you for your explanation it changed my outlook. I don't get too how prokaryotic DNA is larger than DNA Eukaryotic. Because Genom of bacteries are less than Eukaryotic (however Euk. have more DNA molecules and every chromosome will not have whole DNA. I'm still not sure if these DNA molecules are bigger than Euk.). I might be wrong Actually im looking for informations about Telomarase and why it makes DNA shorter I still don't get it so i decided to find answer in diffrent language. I hope that someone will dedicate his time and describe this process :) Sorry if i made a misstake because both English and Bio is not my nattive language :D.

[@HeyImLucious]

+Shifa Zahid oh wow I completely messed that up at the end! I'm sorry for any confusion, eukaryotic DNA is bigger than Prokaryotic DNA. Besides my (embarrassing) little mistake at the end, which individual enzymes would you like to know about? There are many subunits and helper enzymes! :)

[@HeyImLucious]

+Marcin Gworys Sorry for the awkward reply times, I'm trying to do this between classes and clinicals. I made a mistake and reversed "Euk" and "Prok" somehow- sorry for the confusion! Eukaryotic DNA is definetly larger than Prokaryotic DNA. Anyways Telomerase is an interesting enzyme. Telomerase itself does *not* make the DNA shorter, ligase makes the telomere shorter after replication. Basically- Telomerase makes a series of repeating 6-bp sequences (known as telomeric sequences) at the ends of chromatids. Why do these exist? Because of the lagging strand made during replication! After exonuclease activity by DNA Polymerase, the Okazaki fragments need to be annealed together to make a complimentary strand. But DNA Polymerases must work in 5' --> 3' directionality, that is they need an -OH group to bind to (see bottom of comment). This is where the telomeric sequences come into play! The end of an Okazaki fragment lacks an -OH group so the DNA Polymerase can't *properly* attach to it. Telomeres provide the -OH group that the Polymerase needs, so a primer comes in and attaches to a part of the telomere ahead of the fragment. Now that the DNA Poly. is attached, it can run down the strand and fill in the gaps between the Okazaki fragments at the end. Then the ligase comes in and attaches all the DNA fragments together. The extra telomeric sequences are then cleaved off so just the completed DNA strand is left and can attach to its complimentary strand. So in summary- Telomerase allows DNA Polymerase to bind and "fix" the lagging strand's Okazaki fragments. Telomeres get shorter because they get cleaved off with the replicated strand that used it. Telomerase (the enzyme that synthesizes telomeric sequences) is very active early in our development, but as we age it gets less and less active. Eventually the telomeres get too short to risk transcription (risk the loss of "important" DNA) so replication stops. Important: Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cells use different DNA Polymerases (prokaryotes uses DNA Poly III and eukaryotes uses DNA Poly I for this specific exonuclease activity). The DNA polymerase in prokaryotic and eukaroytic cells all serve similar functions. However- they usually have noticeably different structures and extra functions that others do not have. But for simplicity's sake- you're usually safe just thinking of them as a one "polymerase" unless you're in a higher-level course. The -OH group binding is important and explained through biochemistry. I'm not a biochem major, so sadly I can't go into great detail about that because I'm not confident in my answer or reasoning for it (I don't want to give you any false information). Sorry :(

Great video but you forgot to mention the RNA primers required by the okazaki fragments in order for them to be placed upon the strand. The gaps you are referring to do not appear until those primers are removed, they are then refilled with the proper DNA nucleotides.

[@tngdrczp120]

[@POPsongsADDICT]

this video is clear and further cements the concept in my head.(my exams are coming soon). however, from what I remember, there are a few missing points (some are asked in the other comments). 1. DNA polymerase requires a free 3' OH end to add nucleotides to. Therefore, an RNA primer, which is a short sequence of ribonucleotides, (synthesized by RNA primase) is needed to provide a free 3'OH end so that the 5' phosphate end in an incoming deoxyribonucleotide can react with the 3' end to form a phosphodiester bond. 2. phosphodiester bond formation is catalyzed by DNA polymerase. 3. the gaps in the lagging strand are actually occupied by RNA primers. 4. When the lagging strand is completed, DNA polymerase replaces the RNA primers with deoxyribonucleotides (close the gaps) 5. after RNA primers are replaced, DNA ligase is the enzyme that catalyses phosphodiester bond formation between the 3' end of a new Okazaki fragment and the 5' end of the growing lagging strand hope I helped

[@williamf4524]

I found this very helpful. You actually explained this better than my professor. For those who say they were expecting more detail, the title of this video is "Leading Strand vs Lagging Strand" . The title tells me that it is just meant to help you identify the leading and lagging strands in a DNA molecule. In my own opinion, I think the detail she went into was just right to explain this concept. If you want even more detail, you may want to look for a video that deals more with the entire replication process as opposed to just identifying leading and lagging strands.

[@emanatelove]

I still don't understand how it is added discontinuously. I understand all of the directions. But why are there gaps????

[@dimitrismwrakis6910]

because she didnt tell you anything about the primary fragments in the origins of replication.In the lagging strand primary RNA fragments are built in order to have the elongation.so the leading strand is being built continuously but the lagging strand is being built fragment by fragment between the RNA primars.as you can easily understand there is only one RNA primar in the leading vs many RNA primars in the lagging strand.THUS the one is continuously and the other is not.The video is not the best possible

[@aroojtajallah4746]

well, basically when we talk about the direction of the leading template strand then its 3 prime to 5 prime , and lagging template strand is 5 prime to 3 prime. but new strand is always added from 5 prime to 3 prime direction. so its easy and linear in case of leading strand whose direction is opposit to newly sythesized strand. but in case of lagging strand 5-3 , new strand should be added in 5-3 no matter what, so for lagging strand small okazaki fragments are being introduced ( discountinous strand in 5 to 3 direction).

[@bintzubair]

Please watch Khan academy videos to clarify that.

[@natreev524]

I appreciate the video. But, you missed a very important concept ( the reason why i watched this video..anyway) Why are there gaps in the lagging strand if it goes from 5' to 3' direction? whats the difference in that 5' to 3' and the 5' to 3' in leading strand? It has to do with looping of the lagging strand. Which, i still do not understand yet. Gonna look it up more. Just wanted to point it out. Thanks for the video again

[@ayeshanizam3720]

I was wondering that way too nouman. I wish i could find more tutorial vids on replication. Do you know of any?Please guide. Thanks

[@godetroit91]

Okay. I think I finally understand it and can maybe help you. So basically in the Leading strain the DNA polymerase doesn't have to wait for the new information and can follow the RNA Primer, while in the lagging, the Polymerase and the Primer have to dance over each other.

[@mahakchauhan4112]

godetroit91 There are gaps in the lagging strand because everytime the helicase opens the DNA more on the lagging strand, the replication has now to occurs behind the replicated 5-3' segment which is going left to right. a new 5-3 segment which is initiated by the primer starts and later all the primers are replaced by the RNAseH and DNA ligase binds to THEN form one strand like the leading strand. does that make sense? If the process went like leading strand it wouldnt have been a problem but since we go opposite in lagging strand starting from the replication fork(left) down to the 5' end(right) , further opening at the fork by helicase has to be replicated with a new 5-3 end segment.
