Which of the following enzymes is used to join bits of DNA?
Updated On: Jul 28, 2022
- Ligase
- Primase
- Endonuclease
- DNA polymerase
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Ligase is an enzyme that catalyses the bond formation between fragments of DNA. This catalytic reaction will only take place at the expense of the breakdown of ATP or other nucleotide triphosphate.

Enzymes - Biology
Enzymes are proteins that help accelerate metabolism or the chemical reactions in our bodies. They build some substances and decompose others. All living creatures have enzymes.
Our bodies naturally build enzymes. But enzymes are also in mass produce products and food.
One of the most important roles of enzymes is to succor digestion. The process of turning the food that we eat into energy is called digestion. For instance, there are enzymes in our saliva, pancreas, stomach, and intestines. They decompose fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Enzymes make use of these nutrients for growth and cell repair.
