DNA Replication Simulator
Animated visualization of DNA replication process
Replication Animation
Phase: Initiation
Replication Phases
- Initiation: DNA helicase unwinds the double helix
- Elongation: DNA polymerase adds nucleotides
- Leading Strand: Continuous synthesis 5' to 3'
- Lagging Strand: Okazaki fragments synthesis
- Termination: DNA ligase seals the strands
