    DNA is always synthesized in the 5’ to 3’ direction.

    Replication fork is form within the nucleus during DNA replication and usually created by the enzyme helicase. Helicase function by breaking the hydrogen bond that holds the DNA strands together and the strands will serve as template for the leading and lagging strands. Hence, DNA is always synthesized in the 5’ to 3’ direction.
