polA

Unnamed Gene ID: 948356

Known also as: ECK3855; JW3835; resA;


NCBI Gene ID: 948356
Species: Escherichia coli strain K-12 substr. MG1655

Residues 324-928 constitute the Klenow fragment. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10746]. DNA Polymerase I (Pol I) is a multifunctional enzyme that combines a DNA polymerase activity, a 5' to 3' exonuclease activity and a 3' to 5' proofreading exonuclease activity. [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG10746].
