I have got a question relating the DNA replication forks and I have been unable to find out the answer from my books. I am new to molecular biology only started it about two weeks ago.
I know and understand the idea of the DNA replication happening in the replication forks. So if we presume that the replication fork goes into left side with the top strand being the leading str and the bottom the lagging it makes all sense to me. But its says in the book that the replication forks are bidirectional so it can go to right hand side at the same time. So does that mean that if it goes to right side the top strand become the lagging strand while the bottom becomes the leading strand??
Thank you
