question 8

Multiple Choice

If SSB is not present during DNA replication, what would you expect to see?

• A)The replisome complex would not assemble on the oriC region.
• B)The DNA cannot bend, so hydrogen bonds in the 13-mer region of oriC remain intact.
• C)Helicase activity is inhibited, so DNA strands cannot be separated.
• D)SSB carries the helicase protein to the open region of DNA, so hydrolysis and strand separation will not occur.
• E)SSB prevents reannealing of the separated strands, so strands would quickly reanneal and DNA replication cannot proceed.
