41DNA ligase — repairing chromosomal damage Identifiers EC number 6.5.1.1 …
42DNA replication — DNA replication. The double helix is unwound and each strand acts as a template for the next strand. Bases are matched to synthesize the new partner strands. DNA replication is a biological process that occurs in all living organisms and copies… …
43Polymerase — Structure of Taq DNA polymerase A polymerase (EC 2.7.7.6/7/19/48/49) is an enzyme whose central function is associated with polymers of nucleic acids such as RNA and DNA. The primary function of a polymerase is the polymerization of new DNA or… …
44Primer (molecular biology) — A primer is a strand of nucleic acid that serves as a starting point for DNA synthesis. They are required for DNA replication because the enzymes that catalyze this process, DNA polymerases, can only add new nucleotides to an existing strand of… …
45DNA polymerase — 3D structure of the DNA binding helix turn helix motifs in human DNA polymerase beta A DNA polymerase is an enzyme that helps catalyze in the polymerization of deoxyribonucleotides into a DNA strand. DNA polymerases are best known for their… …
46Topoisomerase — Topoisomerases (type I: EC 5.99.1.2, type II: EC 5.99.1.3) are enzymes that regulate the overwinding or underwinding of DNA. The winding problem of DNA arises due to the intertwined nature of its double helical structure. For example, during DNA… …
47List of biochemistry topics — This page aims to list articles on Wikipedia that are related to biochemistry. This is so that those interested in the subject can monitor changes to the pages by clicking on .This list is not necessarily complete or up to date if you see an… …
48Primase — DNA primase is an enzyme involved in the replication of DNA. Primase catalyzes the synthesis of a short RNA (or DNA in some organisms [1]) segment called a primer complementary to a ssDNA template. Primase is of key importance in DNA replication… …
49Helicase — Structure of E. coli helicase RuvA Helicases are a class of enzymes vital to all living organisms. They are motor proteins that move directionally along a nucleic acid phosphodiester backbone, separating two annealed nucleic acid strands (i.e.,… …
50DNA polymerase I — Functional domains in the Klenow Fragment (left) and DNA Polymerase I (right). DNA Polymerase I (or Pol I) is an enzyme that participates in the process of DNA replication in prokaryotes. It is composed of 928 amino acids, and is an example of a… …
