| Method |
This study examines replicase components for their ability to be switched between Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms. |
| Comments |
S. aureus PolC, in complex with S. aureus beta , can travel at a rate of at least 480 nucleotides per s, close to the 750 nucleotides per s speed of E. coli DNA polymerase III holoenzyme. |
