DNA replication is semi-conservative, i.e., each daughter duplex molecule contains one new strand and one old.

Does DNA replication begin at
the same site in every replication
cycle?
Electron microscope image of an E. coli chromosome being
replicated.
Structure (theta, θ) suggests replication
started in only one place on this chromosome. Fig. 20.9

Does DNA replication begin at the same site in every replication cycle?
Experiment:1. Pulse-label a synchronized cell population
during successive rounds of DNA replication with two different isotopes, one that changes the density of newly synthesized DNA (15N), and one that makes it radioactive (32P).
2. DNA is then isolated, sheared, and separated by CsCl density gradient ultra-centrifugation.
3. Radioactivity (32P) in the DNAs of different densities is counted.

1st
Prior to 1st replication cycle, 15N (which incorporates into the bases of DNA) was added for a brief period
Prior to 2nd replication cycle, cells were pulsed with 32P (which gets incorporated into the phosphates of replicating DNA)
15N - heavy isotope of Nitrogen32P - radioactive isotope of phosphorus

Conclusion:Replication of bacterial chromosome starts at the same place every time
Result: ~50% (the most possible) of the incorporated 32P was in the same DNA that was shifted by 15N
![Page 16: DNA Replication in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes 1.Overall mechanism 2.Roles of Polymerases & other proteins 3.More mechanism: Initiation and Termination.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649ee75503460f94bf753c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Using Electron Microscopy (EM) to Demonstrate that DNA Replication is
Bi-Directional
- Pulse-label with radioactive precursor (3H-thymidine)
- Then do EM and autoradiography.
- Has been done with prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
![Page 17: DNA Replication in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes 1.Overall mechanism 2.Roles of Polymerases & other proteins 3.More mechanism: Initiation and Termination.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649ee75503460f94bf753c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Conclusion: eukaryotic origins also replicate bi-directionally!
Drosophila cells were labeled with a pulse of highly radioactive precursor, followed by a pulse of lower radioactive precursor; then replication bubbles were viewed by EM and autoradiography.

Replicon - DNA replicated from a single origin
Eukaryotes have many replication origins.

Enzymology of DNA replication: implications for mechanism
1. DNA-dependent DNA polymerases
– synthesize DNA from dNTPs
– require a template strand and a primer strand with a 3’-OH end
– all synthesize from 5’ to 3’ (add nt to 3’ end only)
![Page 22: DNA Replication in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes 1.Overall mechanism 2.Roles of Polymerases & other proteins 3.More mechanism: Initiation and Termination.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649ee75503460f94bf753c/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Proofreading Activity
Insertion of the wrong nucleotide causes the DNA polymerase to stall, and then the 3’-to-5’ exonuclease activity removes the mispaired A nt. The polymerase then continues adding nts to the primer.
Fig. 20.15 in Weaver 4
![Page 24: DNA Replication in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes 1.Overall mechanism 2.Roles of Polymerases & other proteins 3.More mechanism: Initiation and Termination.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649ee75503460f94bf753c/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
If DNA polymerases only synthesize 5’ to 3’, how does the replication fork move directionally?
![Page 25: DNA Replication in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes 1.Overall mechanism 2.Roles of Polymerases & other proteins 3.More mechanism: Initiation and Termination.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649ee75503460f94bf753c/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• Lagging strand synthesized as small (~100-1000 bp) fragments - “Okazaki fragments” .
• Okazaki fragments begin as very short 6-15 nt RNA primers synthesized by primase.
2. Primase - RNA polymerase that synthesizes the RNA primers (11-12 nt that start with pppAG) for both lagging and leading strand synthesis
![Page 26: DNA Replication in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes 1.Overall mechanism 2.Roles of Polymerases & other proteins 3.More mechanism: Initiation and Termination.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649ee75503460f94bf753c/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Pol III extends the RNA primers until the 3’ end of an Okazaki fragment reaches the 5’ end of a downstream Okazaki fragment.
Lagging strand synthesis (continued)
Then, Pol I degrades the RNA part with its 5’-3’ exonuclease activity, and replaces it with DNA. Pol I is not highly processive, so stops before going far.
![Page 27: DNA Replication in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes 1.Overall mechanism 2.Roles of Polymerases & other proteins 3.More mechanism: Initiation and Termination.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649ee75503460f94bf753c/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
At this stage, Lagging strand is a series of DNA fragments (without gaps).
Fragments stitched together covalently by DNA Ligase.
3. DNA Ligase - joins the 5’ phosphate of one DNA molecule to the 3’ OH of another, using energy in the form of NAD (prokaryotes) or ATP (eukaryotes). It prefers substrates that are double-stranded, with only one strand needing ligation, and lacking gaps.
![Page 28: DNA Replication in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes 1.Overall mechanism 2.Roles of Polymerases & other proteins 3.More mechanism: Initiation and Termination.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649ee75503460f94bf753c/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Mechanism of Prokaryotic DNA Ligase
Ligase cleaves NAD and attaches to AMP.
Ligase-AMP binds and attaches to 5’ end of DNA #1 via the AMP.
The 3’OH of DNA #2 reacts with the phosphodiester shown, displacing the AMP-ligase.
AMP & ligase separate.
(Euk. DNA ligase uses ATP as AMP donor)

Replisome - DNA and protein machinery at a replication fork.
Other proteins needed for DNA replication:
4. DNA Helicase (dnaB gene) – hexameric protein, unwinds DNA strands, uses ATP.
5. SSB – single-strand DNA binding protein, prevents strands from re-annealing and from being degraded, stimulates DNA Pol III.
6. Gyrase – a.k.a. Topoisomerase II, keeps DNA ahead of fork from over winding (i.e.,
relieves torsional strain).

Replication Causes DNA to Supercoil

Rubber Band Model of Supercoiling DNA
DNA Gyrase relaxes positive supercoils by breaking and rejoining both DNA strands.
