In DNA replication, the enzyme that separate the two strands of DNA is 'Helicase'.
Explanation:
- DNA replication is defined as a biological process where it produces two identical replicas of the DNA from one original DNA molecule.
- This DNA is made up of double helix of the two complementary strands. During the process of replication, these strands will get separated.
- Helicase are also known as helix destabilizing enzymes are generally DNA replication proteins. This type of enzymes will separate the 2 strands of DNA at the replication fork behind the topoisomerase.
