Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
ATP + (deoxyribonucleotide)n-3'-hydroxyl + 5'-phospho-(deoxyribonucleotide)m = (deoxyribonucleotide)n+m + AMP + beta-nicotinamide D-nucleotide 3 steps of reaction: 1. adenylation of the ligase in the presence of NAD+, 2. transferring the adenylate moiety to the 5'-phosphate of the nicked DNA substrate, 3. sealing the nick through the formation of a phosphodiester bond Aquifex pyrophilus
