The length of the priming RNA is limited to eight to 14 bases. Apparently, DNA polymerase III is responsible for displacing the primase.

FENl is an exo-jendonuclease that recognizes the structure created when one strand of DNA is displaced from a duplex as a "flap." In mammalian replication it cleaves at the base of the flap to remove the RNA primer.

The gap is filled by DNA polymerase I; pol A mutants fail to join their Okazaki fragments properly.
