| lysosogenic bacteriophage | <virology> Bacteriophage that can take part in a lysogenic or lytic cycle in its bacterial host. See: lysogeny. (15 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) |
| RNA polymerase | <enzyme, molecular biology> An enzyme that polymerise ribonucleotides in accordance with the information present in DNA. Prokaryotes have a single enzyme for the three RNA types that is subject to stringent regulatory mechanisms. Eukaryotes have type I that synthesises all rRNA except the 5S component, type II that synthesises mRNA and hnRNA and type III that synthesises tRNA and the 5S component of rRNA. (23 Aug 1998) |
| RNA polymerase I | <enzyme> A DNA-dependent RNA polymerase present in bacterial, plant, and animal cells. The enzyme functions in the nucleolar structure and transcribes DNA into RNA. It has different requirements for cations and salts than RNA polymerase II and III and is not inhibited by alpha-amanitin. Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| RNA polymerase II | <enzyme> A DNA-dependent RNA polymerase present in bacterial, plant, and animal cells. It functions in the nucleoplasmic structure and transcribes DNA into RNA. It has different requirements for cations and salt than RNA polymerase I and is strongly inhibited by alpha-amanitin. Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| RNA polymerase III | <enzyme> A DNA-dependent RNA polymerase present in bacterial, plant, and animal cells. It functions in the nucleoplasmic structure where it transcribes DNA into RNA. It has specific requirements for cations and salt and has shown an intermediate sensitivity to alpha-amanitin in comparison to RNA polymerase I and II. Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| 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) |
| poly-a polymerase | <enzyme> An enzyme in the nucleus of acell that adds several adenine nucleotidesto the 3' end of a primarytranscript messenger RNA. (09 Oct 1997) |
| poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate polymerase | <enzyme> 3rd enzyme of the poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate biosynthetic pathway in alcaligens eutrophus; acts via, an acyl s-enzyme intermediate Registry number: EC 2.3.1.- Synonym: phb polymerase, phb synthase, phac gene product, poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate synthetase (26 Jun 1999) |
| polyglycerol phosphate polymerase | <enzyme> Involved in biosynthesis of teichoic acids Registry number: EC 2.7.8.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| polymerase | <enzyme> Enzymes that catalyse the synthesis of nucleic acids on preexisting nucleic acid templates, assembling RNA from ribonucleotides or DNA from deoxyribonucleotides. (14 Oct 1997) |
| polymerase a | A class of mammalian DNA polymerases in the nucleus that function in chromosome replication. Synonym: polymerase a. (05 Mar 2000) |
