Metal-induced DNA translocation leads to DNA polymerase conformational activation

Binding of the catalytic divalent ion to the ternary DNA polymerase β/gapped DNA/dNTP complex is thought to represent the final step in the assembly of the catalytic complex and is consequently a critical determinant of replicative fidelity. We have analyzed the effects of Mg(2+) and Zn(2+) on the c...
