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.

Which enzyme joins the okazagi fragments together on the lagging stand during DNA replication?
DNA ligase
The enzyme that restores the phosphodiester linkage between adjacent fragments in the lagging strand during DNA replication is?
DNA Ligase
In the replication of DNA what is the name of the enzyme which joins the lagging strands together?
DNA ligase
Does dna ligase help assemble the leading strand?
Not in general replication as the leading strand is replicated straight away. The lagging strand is replicated in pieces that need ligase to affix them, one to the other. However, in a replication bubble, when a lagging strand runs into a leading strand, and later the primers are replaced, ligase is still needed. Therefore, technically, the leading strand does need the ligase once.
What DNA replication enzyme attaches okazaki fragments as a continuous strand of DNA?
Ligase joins okazaki fragments to each other to form a continuous strand of DNA

lagging plato pepes
What enzyme connects nucleotides together during DNA replication?
The Ligase connects nucleotides together during DNA replication.
What DNA replication enzyme attaches okazaki fragments as a continuous strand of DNA?
Ligase joins okazaki fragments to each other to form a continuous strand of DNA
What is the function of DNA ligase in DNA replication?
it ties the chunks of dna together
The enzyme that connects the fragments ( Okazaki fragments) are called?
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.
What is the molecule that seals the gaps between the pieces of DNA in the lagging strand is?
ligase
Which molecule is active during the last step during DNA replication?
DNA ligase. Apex
