DNA polymerase is an enzyme which carries out all forms of DNA replication. This enzyme catalyses the addition of nucleotide substrates to DNA in the 5' -3' direction during replication. Proof reading and error correction is done by the DNA polymerase. This enzyme can remove nucleotides from the end of the growing strand in order to correct mismatched bases.
