POLAc

DNA polymerase A domain
POLAc
SMART accession number:SM00482
Description: -
Interpro abstract (IPR001098):

Synonym(s): DNA nucleotidyltransferase (DNA-directed)

DNA-directed DNA polymerases( EC 2.7.7.7 ) are the key enzymes catalysing the accurate replication of DNA. They require either a small RNA molecule or a protein as a primer for the de novo synthesis of a DNA chain. A number of polymerases belong to this family [ (PUBMED:2196557) (PUBMED:1870963) (PUBMED:8451181) ].

GO process:DNA replication (GO:0006260)
GO function:DNA binding (GO:0003677), DNA-directed DNA polymerase activity (GO:0003887)
