Processive DNA polymerases that replicate chromosomes interact with a ring-shaped clamp that encircles DNA and slides along the duplex. All sliding clamps (Escherichia coli β-clamp, T4 bacteriophage ...
DNA is often likened to a blueprint. The particular sequence of As, Cs, Gs, and Ts in DNA provides information for building an organism. What’s not captured by this analogy is the fact that our DNA ...

During the process of bacterial DNA replication, DNA Polymerase, which catalyze the synthesis of DNA, plays an indispensable role. In order to keep DNA Polymerase III sliding along, a protein complex ...
