Question 1

Which of the following would you find in a Sanger sequencing reaction but not in a polymerase chain reaction?
◦ DNA template
◦ DNA polymerase
◦ dNTPs
◦ ddNTPs
◦ DNA primer

Question 2

Why are leading and lagging strand primers removed rather than joined with Okazaki fragments?
◦ The primers do not hydrogen bond to the template strand correctly.
◦ They have to be removed for leading and lagging strand synthesis to begin.
◦ Primers are too short to efficiently bind to Okazaki fragments.
◦ They contain nucleotides with 2'OH groups, and are targeted for excision by DNA Polymerase.
◦ They lack the 3' OH that would permit them to be covalently linked to the Okazaki fragments.

A good example of polar molecules can be understood when trying to make a cake. If water and oil are required, they will not mix together. If you put them into a measuring cup, the oil will rise to the top while the water remains on the bottom.
