{"Image DocumentName": "DNA Replication is Semidiscontinuous", "Image ImageDescription": "DNA synthesis is ALWAYS 5\u2019 \u21923\u2019 direction. Leading strand synthesis is ALWAYS 5\u2019\u21923\u2019 as well and is able to be CONTINUOUS. Lagging strand synthesis is STILL 5\u2019\u21923\u2019 direction but must be DISCONTINUOUS. Lagging strand synthesis proceeds with 1K to 2K size fragments called Okazaki fragments that are subsequently linked together by another enzyme, DNA ligase.
