The denaturation of which enzyme would lead to incorrect base pairing of nucleotides during DNA replication?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The DNA polymerase is the enzyme responsible for attaching the new complimentary base pairs to the exposed strands.If this enzyme was denatured the correct bases would not be attached.The DNA ligase is responsible for sealing any breaks in the sugar-phosphate backbone of the strand.DNA helicase unwinds the strand.Binding proteins help keep the unwound strand open during replication.Okazaki fragments are the short sections of replicated DNA that form from the lagging strand.
