Question
Chapter 24, Problem 70P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Interpret the enzyme responsible for joining
Concept Introduction:
Ligation is the term used for addition of nucleotides to produce a new strand of DNA or joining the fragments of DNA.
DNA ligase is a class of enzyme used to ligate or add fragments of DNA for the purpose of repairing or replication. It joins the nucleotide by creating phospho diester linkage.
