Several enzymes are used throughout the DNA replication process. Single-stranded binding proteins are important for ensuring stability of the DNA molecule during replication. If a mutation caused the SSBPs to not bind efficiently to the DNA molecule, which enzyme below would be most affected? ORNA polymerase OHelicase OTopoisomerase ODNA polymerase

Each of the following terms/enzymes is involved in the replication of chromosomes. Pick which one of the enzymes would have the most impact on replication if it were to inherit a mutation and explain your reasoning. 1. DNA ligase 2. DNA polymerase 3. Primase
Sri K.
Match the enzymes to their role in the DNA replication process. RNA primase 1. ligase 2. helicase 3. polymerase 4. topoisomerase 5. RNA primase 1. unwinds the DNA molecule 2. synthesizes the complementary daughter strands 3. synthesizes RNA primer at the initiation point 4. creates nicks ahead of the replication fork to relieve tension from unwinding 5. joins the Okazaki fragments together
Arrange the following enzymes in the order of their action during DNA replication in $E .$ coli: (1) DNA polymerase I, (2) DNA polymerase III, (3) DNA primase, (4) DNA gyrase, and (5) DNA helicase.
