What is replisome?

Assemblage of proteins (including primase, DNA polymerase, helicase, SSB proteins) that replicate the DNA. This complex involves in elongation of DNA and move along the complimentary strand.


Which enzymes catalyzes the elongation of a new DNA strand?

DNA polymerase catalyzes the reactions that are responsible for synthesizing new DNA strands in the 5' to 3' direction. The parent DNA strand is read in the 3' to 5' direction but the daughter strand is extended in the opposite direction.
