| DNA nucleotidylexotransferase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
| Terminal addition enzyme. |
| Terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase. |
| Terminal deoxyribonucleotidyltransferase. |
| Terminal transferase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
| Deoxynucleoside triphosphate + DNA(n) <=> diphosphate + DNA(n+1) |
| Comment(s) |
- Catalyzes template-independent extension of the 3'-end of a DNA
