DNA Polymerase Function

DNA polymerase in biology - meaning, definition and examples

Rashi Gupta | Jamia Hamdard on Instagram: "DNA polymerase is a vital enzyme responsible for synthesizing new DNA strands during replication. It reads the template strand in the 3′ → 5′ direction and adds complementary nucleotides to the growing strand in the 5′ → 3′ direction, forming phosphodiester bonds between nucleotides.🧬 It requires a primer to initiate synthesis and ensures high fidelity through its proofreading (3′ → 5′ exonuclease) activity, correcting any mismatched bases.
