Thermal Conversion of Nonpriming Deoxyribonucleic Acid to Primer
Open accessAbstract
A deoxyribonucleic acid-synthesizing enzyme (polymerase) has been isolated and partially purified from the soluble fraction of calf thymus gland (1, 2). This enzyme is similar to the bac-terial enzyme isolated by Lehman et al. (3) in that it requires all four deoxynucleoside triphosphates, magnesium ion, and “pri-mer” deoxyribonucleic acid for activity (4). The enzyme has been purified to the extent that net synthesis of polymer has been achieved (2). of the most intriguing aspects of this synthesis is the na-ture and detailed function of the DNA primer. The present communication demonstrates a thermal conversion of nonpriming, presumably “native” DNA’s to priming DNA, and includes a rapid method for assaying the amounts of polymer formed in polymerase reactions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
