DNA Replication Simulator

Before a cell divides it must copy its entire genome, and a team of enzymes does the work: unwinding the helix, separating the strands, laying down primers and adding matching nucleotides. Because the two strands run in opposite directions, one is copied continuously and the other in short pieces. Here you run that process enzyme by enzyme.
