The main enzyme involved in transcription is RNA polymerase, which uses a single-stranded DNA template to synthesize a complementary strand of RNA. Specifically, RNA polymerase builds …

On the leading strand, DNA polymerase catalyzes the continuous synthesis of DNA in the 5' to 3' direction. However, on the lagging strand, DNA synthesis occurs in short fragments called …

New DNA is made by enzymes called DNA polymerases, which require a template and a primer (starter) and synthesize DNA in the 5' to 3' direction. During DNA replication, one new strand …

Starting at primers, DNA polymerase synthesizes new DNA strands in the 5’ to 3’ direction. This happens continuously on the leading strand, and discontinuously on the lagging strand.

New DNA is made by enzymes called DNA polymerases, which require a template and a primer (starter) and synthesize DNA in the 5' to 3' direction. During DNA replication, one new strand …

During DNA synthesis, most DNA polymerases "check their work," fixing the majority of mispaired bases in a process called proofreading. Immediately after DNA synthesis, any remaining …

DNA polymerase III plays a crucial role in DNA replication, proofreading and correcting errors. It works alongside DNA helicase and other enzymes to ensure accurate replication.

It does that the same way that when we studied DNA polymerase, it does it in only one direction. It can only add more nucleotides on the three prime end. So it encodes from the five prime to …

PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is a vital technique in molecular biology, enabling researchers to amplify specific DNA fragments exponentially. Essential for cloning, forensics, and medical …
