NEET Biology question

Match the given enzymes with their respective function in DNA replication.

| Column-I | Column-II | |---|---| | (A) DNA helicase | (1) A protein which prevents DNA polymerase-III from dissociating from the DNA parent strand | | (B) DNA polymerase | (2) Bind to ssDNA and prevent the DNA double helix from re-annealing after DNA helicase unwinds it, thus maintaining the strand separation | | (C) DNA clamp | (3) Also known as the helix-destabilising enzyme; unwinds the DNA double helix at the replication fork | | (D) Single-Strand Binding (SSB) Proteins | (4) Builds a new duplex DNA strand by adding nucleotides in the 5' to 3' direction; also performs proofreading and error correction |

• (B)A-3, B-4, C-1, D-2Correct
• (C)A-4, B-3, C-2, D-1
• (D)A-1, B-2, C-3, D-4
