Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria and can utilize two different pathways after infection; the lytic or lysogenic cycles. During the lytic cycle, the bacteriophage hijacks the bacterial machinery to replicate...
Primase-polymerases (prim-pols) are enzymes that exhibit primase, polymerase, and potential helicase-like activities by way of a bifunctional N-terminal prim-pol domain and a C-terminal ATPase domain. Presented is a...
