Question

Name any two enzymes of dna replication and mention one specific function function of each of them.

Answer 1

The enzymes of DNA Replication are:

• Single-Stranded DNA Protein: It helps in the prevention of the strands from re-associating.

It also protects them from degradation that occurs due to nucleases.

• Helicases: It provides ‘Swivel’ in front of each of the replication fork.

They nick both the strands of DNA and insert super coils with the help of DNA gyrase.
