What function does DNA ligase perform in the cell? What is the function of DNA ligase in DNA replication? What are the functions of DNA and RNA? What are the sub-units of DNA and their function in biology? What are Chargaff's rules? How did they help determine the structure of DNA?
What is the function of DNA ligase in DNA replication? Explain how the structure of DNA is well-suited for replication and its function. What is the function of primase in DNA replication? Describe the function of single-stranded DNA-binding proteins in opening the helix in DNA synthesis. ...
What Does DNA Ligase Do? DNA Ligase in Genetic Engineering Lesson Summary Frequently Asked Questions What is the action of DNA ligase in DNA replication? DNA ligase fuses together Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand during replication. It does this by covalently linking the 3' hydroxyl group...
DNA ligases play an essential role in DNA replication, repair, and recombination and are classified as ATP-dependent or NAD-dependent based on their adenylation cofactor requirement. ATP-dependent ligases have been found in bacteriophages, viruses, archaea, eukaryotes and bacteria. DNA-dependent ...
Learn the definition of DNA ligase and explore the role of DNA ligase in DNA synthesis and repair, as well as its current uses in molecular...
Moreover, in vitro SV40 DNA replication in normal human cell extracts was inhibited by an excess of either full-length DNA ligase I or the amino-terminal region of the protein, but not by the catalytic domain. This inhibition may be mediated by the interaction of the amino-terminal region ...

leading to the change of their susceptibility to proteasomal degradation mediated by E3 ubiquitin ligase β-TrCP [26,27]. Whether phosphorylation promotes protein stability or degradation depends not only on the modified residues, but also on the subtle differences in the kinases responsible [3]. Fo...
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae CDC9 gene encodes a DNA ligase protein that is targeted to both the nucleus and the mitochondria. While nuclear Cdc9p is known to play an essential role in nuclear DNA replication and repair, its role in mitochondrial DNA dynamics has not been defined. It is also...
Much of the understanding of DNA replication has come from studying the bacterium Escherichia coli. In bacterial chromosomes one site, called the origin of replication, has a sequence of base pairs to which an initiator protein binds. The initiator protein attracts enzymes called helicases that in...
