- biochemistry, a
polymerase is an
enzyme (EC 2.7.7.6/7/19/48/49) that
synthesizes long
chains of
polymers or
nucleic acids. DNA
polymerase and RNA
polymerase are used...
- A DNA
polymerase is a
member of a
family of
enzymes that
catalyze the
synthesis of DNA
molecules from
nucleoside triphosphates, the
molecular precursors...
- The
polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a
method widely used to make
millions to

- In
molecular biology, RNA
polymerase (abbreviated RNAP or RNApol), or more
specifically DNA-directed/dependent RNA

During transcription, a DNA
sequence is read by an RNA
polymerase,
which produces a complementary,
antiparallel RNA
strand called a primary...
