What enzyme unzips DNA and RNA?
the one that breaks it is called Helicase and the one that adds it is called Polymerase.
What enzyme catalyzes DNA replication?
one of them is heliocase. it 'unzips' the DNA strand. You can always remember this because it's in a popular joke: Q. Why is the enzyme heliocase a lot like a teenage boy? A. They both want to unzip your jeans (genes) !!!!!
What type of biology do DNA ligase belong to?
DNA ligase is a very specific enzyme used in microbiology. The enzyme is used to help join DNA strands together and is used for DNA replication and repair.
Which is the main enzyme used for the replication of DNA in ecoli?
DNA polymerase
Enzyme used to position nucleotides during DNA replication?
DNA polymerase
During transcription what molecule opens the DNA?
Helicase is what will "unzip" the DNA.
What enzyme separates the DNA rails during replication?
The protein uncoils the helix and "unzip" the bases
What is the shortest definition for the word vacuole?
If I were an enzyme, I'd be DNA helicase so I could unzip your genes.

What enzyme do you need to get a copy of DNA from mRNA?
Reverse transcriptase is the enzyme used to synthesize DNA from mRNA.

DNA ligase is a very specific enzyme used in microbiology. The enzyme is used to help join DNA strands together and is used for DNA replication and repair.
The enzyme used to separate the strands of DNA is?
DNA Polymerase
What occures when 2 strands unzip and the nitrogen bases pair with different nitrogen bases?
This is the process of DNA replication. A DNA strand in the nucleus of a cell, starts off by being "unzipped" by helicase (an enzyme). Then another enzyme, DNA polymerase matches the nitrogen bases (which are freely floating in the nucleus), of each half with their matches, this forms two identical strands, of DNA.
What bonds are broken in order the unzip the DNA strands?
The hydrogen bonds are broken in order to unzip the DNA strand. This all occurs during the DNA replication process.
What type of enzyme is used to fragment dna?
restriction enzymes are used to cut DNA.
Which is the main enzyme used for the replication of DNA in ecoli?
DNA polymerase
