Knoxy Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Hi! I have read many books and gone through few video tutorials but I am still unable to figure it out why actually lagging strand is formed? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Skeptic Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Because DNA polymerase works in only the 5' to 3' direction of the DNA strand, and there are two DNA strands in an antiparallel configuration (ie, opposite directions). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
