splicing, is currently the most commonly used fusion splicing technology. It is more expensive for its complex technology, more powerful and flexible, and less sensitive to variations in the cable and environment.
DNA ligase is similar to the construction crew that builds the bridges. Through the process of DNA replication, many fragments are produced. DNA ligase fills the spaces between the different fragments to bridge together the gaps in DNA. It accomplishes this by creating phosphodiester bonds between the 3' end of one nucleotide and the 5' end of the next nucleotide.
DNA polymerase is an enzyme that synthesizes new copies of DNA. It carries out this function after DNA helicase has unzipped the DNA thereby creating two single strands of DNA that can be used as templates.he result of DNA polymerase function is two copies of DNA that contain one original and one newly synthesized strand of DNA.
