DNApolymeraasilla
DNA polymerase is an enzyme responsible for synthesizing DNA molecules. It plays a crucial role in DNA replication, repair, and recombination. DNA polymerases are classified into several families based on their structure, mechanism, and function. The most well-known family is the A family, which includes DNA polymerase I, II, and III. DNA polymerase I is involved in DNA repair and recombination, while DNA polymerase II is primarily involved in DNA repair. DNA polymerase III is the primary enzyme responsible for DNA replication in prokaryotes.
DNA polymerases work by adding nucleotides to a growing DNA strand in the 5' to 3' direction.
DNA polymerases are essential for maintaining the integrity of the genome. Mutations in DNA polymerase genes
