Deletion of last 3 paragraphs
The last 3 paragraphs of this article were narrow and poorly written. They unnecessarily extended the article without a payoff. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.25.54.191 (talk) 07:46, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

The article keeps referring to the researchers as "the Okazakis". However there was only One Okizaki. One could refer to "Okizaki et al", or "the Okizaki Team", but not "the Okazakis".

In the second section the article keeps referring to "flaps". What is a "flap"? I don't believe that this is a commonly used concept in the field. Is he referring to DNA strands? Old ones or New ones or Both? Or to newly synthesized fragments? He should use precise accepted terminology.
