Multiple Choice
What would be the effect on DNA replication if the helicase was unable to hydrolyze ATP?
A) Helicases use the energy of ATP hydrolysis to unwind the strands of DNA during replication.Although,some DNA polymerases can unwind DNA as they synthesize new DNA,helicases make the process is much more efficient.If helicases cannot hydrolyze ATP,they cannot properly unwind the DNA,and replication would be slowed.
B) Helicases use the energy of ATP hydrolysis to wind the strands of DNA during replication.Although,some DNA polymerases can wind DNA as they synthesize new DNA,helicases make the process is much more efficient.If helicases cannot hydrolyze ATP,they cannot properly wind the DNA,and replication would be slowed.
C) Helicases unwind the strands of DNA during replication.If helicases cannot hydrolyze ATP,they cannot unwind the DNA,and replication would be stopped.
