A. DNA polmerase
is responsible for initiation of DNA replication at the origin of
replication. So if any mutation occurs which leads to destruction
of the function of DNA plymerase
will not initiate the DNA replication process
B. DNA polymerase 1 mutation will lead to disruption of the following functions-
a. A 5'-3'(forward)DNA dependent DNA plymerase activity.
b. A 3'-5'(reverse) exonuclease activity (proofreading)
c. A 5'-3'(foward) exonuclease activity during DNA repair (nick translation)
d. A 5'-3' (forward) RNA dependent DNA polymerase activity.

4. The enzyme DNA polymerase has two important activities: 5-10-3 polymerase and 3 '-10-5'exonuclease. The 5'-to-3' polymerase makes one misincorporation per 100,000 incorporations. A misincorporation occurs when the "wrong" nucleotide-residue is added to the growing DNA-molecule, such that the added residue is NOT complementary in the normal Watson-Crick way (G with C, A with T) to the residue in the template DNA. Normally, the 3'-to-5'exonuclease corrects most of these misincorporations, reducing the misincorporation rate to one in 10,000,000. If a...
