BIOL 1107 Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Dna Polymerase, Dna Replication, Release Factor
Document Summary
Will replicate but it is much slower. Euk and pro use this to go in and make corrections after replication has been completed. Polymerase can only add a nucleotide (polymerize) going 5 to 3. All three are capable of excision (cutting, cleaning etc) in the 3 to 5 direction. Ask if it is repairing or polymerizing, then look at how the enzyme is behaving. During dna replication what enzyme builds the replicate strand. Dna (information storage) -> transcription -> mrna (information carrier) -> translation ->
