During DNA replication Okazaki fragments are joined together by DNA polymerase. Remember that Okazaki fragments start with an RNA primer so RNAse H is need to remove the primer follwed by DNA plymerase to add nucleotides and finally DNA ligase to seal the single strand nick.
it is a linking enzyme essential for DNA replication; catalyzes the covalent bonding of the 3' end of one DNA fragment to the 5' end of another DNA fragment.
okazaki fregments
Okazaki fragments are used to elongate the lagging strand. These fragments are used as primers for RNA polymerase to fill up the gaps in the newly formed complimentary DNA on the lagging strand. DNA ligase then seals up the gaps.
It joins Okazaki fragments
If you are referring to the fragmented lagging strand for DNA replication, the fragments are called Okazaki fragments.
DNA ligase is the enzyme responsible for connecting the Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand during DNA replication. It catalyzes the formation of phosphodiester bonds to join the individual nucleotides together.
Replication is the process and im sure im right.
Ligase joins together the Okazaki fragments into a continuous strand of DNA.
Ligase joins together the Okazaki fragments into a continuous strand of DNA.
Technically he did not "invent" anything, but he found out and proved that one of the two strands in new forming DNA during replication is replicating discontinuously, which means there are small fragments of DNA, which are to be connected afterwards. These fragments are named after him Okazaki fragments.
