What catalyzes the linking together of nucleotide subunits?

Enzymes called DNA polymerases catalyze the linking together of nucleotide subunits in DNA replication. These enzymes attach new nucleotides to the growing DNA strand based on the complementary base pairing between the original template DNA strand and the new nucleotides.
