Question

Name two enzymes involved in the process of DNA replication along with their properties.

Answer 1

Enzymes involved in DNA replication:

Helicases: The helicases help in unwinding the helix, using ATP hydrolysis as a source of energy.

Primase: The primase catalyses the polymerisation of RNA building blocks into the primer. The DNA primer is formed at the free end of one DNA strand and at the fork end of the other strand.
