DNA polymerase 3 is the primary enzyme responsible for prokaryotic DNA replication. It was first discovered by Thomas Kornberg and Malcolm Gefter in 1970.

Function

As mentioned DNA Polymerase 3 is responsible for replicating DNA in prokaryotes.

Structural highlights

This enzyme contains many different regions that all have different properties. These are the of the polymerase. The purple regions are towards the outside because they are polar and therefore hydrophilic. The gray regions are hydrophobic regions ands therefore are mostly packed in. </StructureSection>
