We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

'''DNA ligase''' (LigD) is an enzyme which repairs single-stranded breaks in a double-stranded DNA. LigD is activated, in a species-dependent manner, by hydrolysis of ATP or NAD+.<br /> | '''DNA ligase''' (LigD) is an enzyme which repairs single-stranded breaks in a double-stranded DNA.
