For each step of DNA replication, predict the outcome if: concentration of nitrogenous bases is low primase is inhibited DNA polymerase were inhibited DNA ligase were inhibited Helicase were inhibited AND Identify cellular process(es) that require DNA replication THANKS Solution concentration of nitrogenous bases is low- DNA molecule is made up of nitrogenous bases adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. These nitrogenous bases form the template and the sequence of DNA in replication. They specify the order of these bases in the complementary template strand being formed. primase is inhibited- Enzyme primase is of key importance in DNA replication because it is the only enzyme that can initiate DNA synthesis strand without an initial PNA or CNA primer. Hence primase is essential as it catalysis the synthesis of a primer complementary to ssDNA template aiding in the initiation of DNA replication to take place. DNA polymerase were inhibited- DNA polymerase is an essential enzyme involved in the repair of any damage to DNA molecule and it also plays a vital role in DNA replication; it connects the Okazaki fragments (complementary fragements to the lagging template strand ) by deleting RNA primers and replacing it with DNA. DNA ligase were inhibited- Ligase enzyme is useful in DNA repair (single-strand or double- strand breaks of DNA) and in replication by joining the double DNA strands through phosphodiester bond formation (3\'OH end and 5\'P end). DNA double helicular structure is thus formed through ligation of both strands on replication. Helicase were inhibited- Helicases help in the seperation of nucleic acid strands required during the cellular processes like DNA replication, transcription, repair. This seperation is done by Helicase enzyme by moving through a nucleic acid phosphodiester backbone that exists in DNA, RNA, or DNA-RNA hybrid. cellular process that require DNA replication- In mitosis DNA replication is essential (S stage of interphase) which gets distributed to the resulting daughter cells at the end of cytokinesis. This ensures two similar daughter cells having common genetic material..
