DNA Polymerase Directionality
Why is DNA polymerase unable to synthesize DNA continuously on both template strands?
A
DNA polymerase synthesizes DNA in the 3' to 5' direction, allowing continuous synthesis only on the 5' to 3' template strand.
B
DNA polymerase synthesizes DNA in the 5' to 3' direction, allowing continuous synthesis only on the 3' to 5' template strand.
C
DNA polymerase functions only in conjunction with DNA helicase.
D
DNA polymerase functions only in conjunction with DNA ligase.
E
DNA polymerase functions only in conjunction with RNA primase.
