  2. Ligase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligase

    In biochemistry, a ligase is an enzyme that can catalyze the joining of two molecules by forming a new chemical bond.This is typically via hydrolysis of a small pendant chemical group on one of the molecules, typically resulting in the formation of new C-O, C-S, or C-N bonds.

  3. DNA ligase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_ligase

    DNA ligase is a type of enzyme that facilitates the joining of DNA strands together by catalyzing the formation of a phosphodiester bond.It plays a role in repairing single-strand breaks in duplex DNA in living organisms, but some forms (such as DNA ligase IV) may specifically repair double-strand breaks (i.e. a break in both complementary strands of DNA).

    EC 6.3.2.19: The ubiquitinylation process is now known to be performed by several enzymes in sequence, starting with EC 6.2.1.45 (ubiquitin-activating enzyme E1) and followed by several transfer reactions, including those of EC 2.3.2.23 (E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme) and EC 2.3.2.27 (RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase)

  5. Ligation (molecular biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligation_(molecular_biology)

    T4 DNA ligase used to cyclize short ssDNA fragments, but process is complicated by formation of secondary structures. On the other hand, Taq DNA ligase is a thermostable enzyme which can be applied at higher temperatures (45, 55 and 65 °C respectively). Since at these temperature range secondary structures less stable it is enhance cyclization ...

  6. DNA ligase 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_ligase_1

    DNA ligase 1 also DNA ligase I, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the LIG1 gene. DNA ligase 1 is the only known eukaryotic DNA ligase involved in both DNA replication and repair , making it the most studied of the ligases .

  7. Glutamate–cysteine ligase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glutamate–cysteine_ligase

    The plant glutamate cysteine ligase is a redox-sensitive homodimeric enzyme, conserved in the plant kingdom. [26] In an oxidizing environment, intermolecular disulfide bridges are formed and the enzyme switches to the dimeric active state. The midpoint potential of the critical cysteine pair is -318 mV.

  8. Ubiquitin ligase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubiquitin_ligase

    A ubiquitin ligase (also called an E3 ubiquitin ligase) is a protein that recruits an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme that has been loaded with ubiquitin, recognizes a protein substrate, and assists or directly catalyzes the transfer of ubiquitin from the E2 to the protein substrate. In simple and more general terms, the ligase enables movement ...

  9. Sequencing by ligation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequencing_by_ligation

    DNA ligase is an enzyme that joins together ends of DNA molecules. Although commonly represented as joining two pairs of ends at once, as in the ligation of restriction enzyme fragments, ligase can also join the ends on only one of the two strands (for example, when the other strand is already continuous or lacks a terminal phosphate necessary for ligation).
