Card 9 / 21:
Explain the events taking place at the replication fork. If the gene for helicase is mutated, what part of replication will be affected?
At the replication fork, the events taking place are helicase action, binding of single-strand binding proteins, primer synthesis, and synthesis of new strands. If there is a mutated helicase gene, the replication fork will not be extended.
