In biochemistry, a ligase is an enzyme that can catalyze the joining of two large molecules by forming a new chemical bond, usually with accompanying hydrolysis of a small pendant chemical group on one of the larger molecules or the enzyme catalyzing the linking together of two compounds, e.g., enzymes that catalyze joining of C-O, C-S, C-N, etc.
This is where DNA ligase comes in. DNA ligase makes the DNA continuous by using the template strand to fill in the complementary bases. The Role of DNA Ligase Let's look at this from a different standpoint for a minute.
