Which Subunit Is Responsible For Proofreading In Bacteria? The ε-subunit, which contains the proofreading exonuclease site within its N-terminal 185 residues, binds to α via a segment of 57 additional C-terminal residues, and also to θ, whose function is less well defined. The present study shows that θ greatly enhances the solubility of ε during

Which Enzyme Acts As A Proofreader During DNA Replication? DNA polymerases are the enzymes that build DNA in cells. During DNA replication (copying), most DNA polymerases can “check their work” with each base that they add. This process is called proofreading. What type of enzyme activity is required for DNA polymerase proofreading? Replicative DNA polymerases
