Fatty acids from Glycolipids and phospholipids, on the other hand, have two hydrophobic chains that are too bulky to fit into the a spherical shape as micelles do. Thus, they preferred to form glycolipids and phospholipids as lipid bilayers, which are discussed in the next section.
DNA Helicase-The enzyme responsible for separating the two strands of DNA in a helix so that they can be copied during DNA replication. DNA Ligase-The enzyme responsible for sealing together breaks or nicks in a DNA strand. Responsible for patching together Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand during DNA replication.
This process is known as DNA replication. Replication is controlled by the Watson-Crick pairing of the bases in the template strand with incoming deoxynucleotide triphosphates, and is directed by DNA polymerase enzymes. It is a complex process, particularly in eukaryotes, involving an array of enzymes.
