   Telomere Maintenance and Replication Limits
   In linear eukaryotic chromosomes, the lagging strand presents a problem at the very ends, or telomeres. Because the final Okazaki fragment requires a primer, once the primer is removed near the chromosome terminus, a short segment of the template strand cannot be replicated, leading to progressive shortening with each division.
