Lagging strand


Lagging strand
DNA replication for the lagging strand is discontinuous and away from the replication fork. The small fragments synthesized are called Okazaki fragments and later stitched together by DNA Ligase.

On the lagging strand, primase "reads" the DNA and adds RNA to it in short bursts. Pol III lengthens the bursts, forming Okazaki fragments.
