Lagging strand

Lagging strand
DNA replication for the lagging strand is discontinuous and away from the replication fork. The small fragments synthesized are called Okazaki fragments and later stitched together by DNA Ligase.

Lagging strand
In DNA replication, the lagging strand is the DNA strand at the opposite side of the replication fork from the leading strand.

Lagging strand
The strand of newly replicated DNA that is synthesised discontinuously in the opposite direction from the replication fork. DNA synthesis proceeds in the 5' to 3' direction.
