Chain termination occurs during synthesis of a new DNA strand. b. Many steps can be automated. c. No DNA is synthesized in the procedure. d. Fluorescent molecules can be used to detect the DNA.arrow_forwardNegative supercoiling may enhance activities like transcriptionand DNA replication because ita. allows the binding of proteins to the major groove.b. promotes DNA strand separation.c. makes the DNA more compact.d. causes all of the above.arrow_forward

DNA polymerase c. electrophoresis d. reverse transcriptasearrow_forwardDNA polymerase III is a processive enzyme, which means that a. it does not dissociate from the growing strand after it has attached a nucleotide to the 3′ end. b. it makes a new strand very quickly. c. it proceeds toward the opening of the replication fork. d. it copies DNA with relatively few errors.arrow_forward
