DNA synthesis-proteins involved

-catalyzes the breaking of hydrogen bonds between base pairs and the opening of the double helix

stabilize single-stranded DNA

-breaks and rejoins the DNA double helix to relieve twisting forces caused by the opening of the helix

catalyzes the synthesis of the RNA primer

extends the leading strand

holds DNA polymerase in place during strand extension

catalyzes the synthesis of the RNA primer on an Okazaki fragment

extends an okazaki fragment

holds DNA polymerase in place during strand extension

removes the RNA primer and replaces it with DNA

catalyzes the joining of okazaki fragments into a continuous strand
