| Deep Vent DNA polymerase | <enzyme> A thermostable DNA polymerase with putative proofreading activity Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- (26 Jun 1999) |

| DNA polymerase | <enzyme, molecular biology> Enzymes involved in template directed synthesis of DNA from deoxyribonucleotide triphosphates. I, II and III are known in E. Coli, III appears to be most important in genome replication and I is important for its ability to edit out unpaired bases at the end of growing strands. Animal cells have and polymerases, with apparently responsible for replication of nuclear DNA and for replication of mitochondrial. All these function with a DNA strand as template. Retroviruses possess a unique DNA polymerase (reverse transcriptase) that uses an RNA template. (18 Nov 1997) |
| DNA polymerase beta | <enzyme> A DNA repair enzyme that catalyses DNA synthesis during base excision DNA repair. Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| DNA polymerase i | DNA Polymerase I is an enzyme that aids in DNA replication. It has the following 3 functions: 1. Polymerizes in the 5(r) to 3(r) direction on single-stranded template. 2. Degrades single or double-stranded DNA from a free 3(r)-OH end, and 3. Degrades double-stranded DNA from a free 5(r) end. (09 Oct 1997) |
| DNA polymerase II | <enzyme> An enzyme that aids in DNA replication. It has a number of different functions, including the repair of ultraviolet radiation damaged DNA. (09 Oct 1997) |
| DNA polymerase III | <enzyme> An enzyme that aids in DNA replication. It has a number of different functions, such as: proofreading newly replicated DNA, removing nucleotides from the 3' end of the strand one by one, and binding nucleotides from the 5' end of the strand. (09 Oct 1997) |
| Tet DNA polymerase | <enzyme> From thermus thermophilus; thermostable, used as a replacement for taq polymerase in DNA sequencing Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- Synonym: DNA polymerase tet (26 Jun 1999) |
| UlTma DNA polymerase | <enzyme> A thermostable DNA polymerase with putative proofreading activity Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| DNA-RNA hybrid | Double-stranded polynucleic acids in which one strand is DNA and the other strand is the complementary RNA; formed during transcription and during multiplication of oncogenic RNA viruses. (05 Mar 2000) |
| DNA-RNA hybridisation | <molecular biology> A type of hybridisation. In this case, a strand of DNA is joined with a complementary strand of RNA to form a double-stranded molecule (or one which is partly double-stranded, if one of the original single strands is shorter than the other). (09 Oct 1997) |
| ribonucleotide polymerase | <enzyme> DNA-dependent Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- Synonym: oligonucleotide polymerase, decaribonucleotide polymerase (26 Jun 1999) |
| ribose polymerase | <enzyme> Enzyme that catalyses the attachment of ADP ribose units to various nuclear proteins. This post translational modification of proteins is dependent on DNA and appears to be involved in the regulation of various cellular processes such as differentiation, proliferation and transformation. (18 Nov 1997) |
| MS2 polymerase | <enzyme> Used in formation of fusion proteins Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| poly(3-hydroxyalkenoate)polymerase | <enzyme> Forms polyesters from medium chain length 3-hydroxy fatty acyl-CoA Registry number: EC 2.3.1.- Synonym: pha polymerase, phac1 gene product (26 Jun 1999) |
| poly(A) polymerase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the formation of a poly(adenylic acid) sequence. (05 Mar 2000) |
