What is the major role of DNA polymerase in the DNA replication?
a. Attached RNA primers to initiate the addition of complementary nucleotide sequence at the 5’ to 3’direction
b. Adds up new complementary nucleotide sequence at the 3’ to 5’ direction of the DNA template.
c. Unwinds the double helix by breaking the bonds at the 3’ to 5’ polymerization activity.
d.It transiently cuts each strand to prevent supercoil at the 5’ to 3’ polymerization activity complementary to the RNA strand
In the dideoxy-sequencing reaction, what terminates DNA synthesis at a particular base? a. The absence of a base on the ddNTP halts the DNA polymerase. b. The ddNTP causes a break in the sugar–phosphate backbone. c. DNA polymerase will not incorporate a ddNTP into the growing DNA strand. d. The absence of a 3′-OH group on the ddNTP prevents the addition of another nucleotide.
