Note: The  15 N-labeled DNA is shown in purple and the  14 N-labeled DNA is shown in blue. 3. Lyse the cells by the addition of lysozyme and detergent, which disrupt the bacterial cell wall and cell membrane, respectively. 4. Load a sample of the lysate onto a CsCl gradient. (Note: The average density of DNA is around 1.7 g/cm 3 , which is well isolated from other cellular macromolecules.) 5. Centrifuge the gradients until the DNA molecules reach their equilibrium densities. 6. DNA within the gradient can be observed under a UV light.

First Okazaki fragment of the lagging strand Second Okazaki fragment Third Okazaki fragment Primer Primer The leading strand elongates, and a second Okazaki fragment is made. The leading strand continues to elongate. A third Okazaki fragment is made, and the first and second are connected together. Primers are needed to initiate DNA synthesis. The synthesis of the leading strand occurs in the same direction as the movement of the replication fork.

11-69 *The designations are those of mammalian enzymes. † Many DNA polymerases have dual functions. For example, DNA polymerases α, δ, and ε are involved in the replication of normal DNA and also play a role in DNA repair. In cells of the immune system, certain genes that encode antibodies (i.e., immunoglobulin genes) undergo a phenomenon known as hypermutation. This increases the variation in the kinds of antibodies the cells can make. Certain polymerases in this list, such as η, may play a role in hypermutation of immunoglobulin genes. DNA polymerase σ may play a role in sister chromatid cohesion, a topic discussed in Chapter 10 .

The leading strand continues to elongate. A third Okazaki fragment is made, and the first and second are connected together. Primers are needed to initiate DNA synthesis. The synthesis of the leading strand occurs in the same direction as the movement of the replication fork.

For example, DNA polymerases α, δ, and ε are involved in the replication of normal DNA and also play a role in DNA repair. In cells of the immune system, certain genes that encode antibodies (i.e., immunoglobulin genes) undergo a phenomenon known as hypermutation. This increases the variation in the kinds of antibodies the cells can make. Certain polymerases in this list, such as η, may play a role in hypermutation of immunoglobulin genes. DNA polymerase σ may play a role in sister chromatid cohesion, a topic discussed in Chapter 10 .
