CAS 9015-85-4

:

DNA ligase (ATP)

Description:
DNA ligase (ATP), with the CAS number 9015-85-4, is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in molecular biology, particularly in DNA replication and repair. This enzyme catalyzes the formation of phosphodiester bonds between adjacent nucleotides, effectively sealing nicks in the DNA backbone. DNA ligase requires adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as a cofactor, which provides the energy necessary for the ligation process. The enzyme is characterized by its specificity for double-stranded DNA and its ability to join fragments of DNA, such as Okazaki fragments during lagging strand synthesis. DNA ligase is essential for maintaining genomic integrity and is widely used in various biotechnological applications, including cloning, genetic engineering, and the construction of recombinant DNA molecules. Its activity can be influenced by factors such as temperature, pH, and the presence of other ions or molecules in the reaction environment. Overall, DNA ligase (ATP) is a vital tool in both natural biological processes and laboratory techniques.
