- In biochemistry, a
ligase is an
enzyme that can
catalyze the
joining (ligation) of two
molecules by
forming a new
chemical bond. This is
typically via...
- DNA
ligase is a type of
enzyme that
facilitates the
joining of DNA
strands together by
catalyzing the
formation of a
phosphodiester bond. It
plays a role...
- A
ubiquitin ligase (also
called an E3
ubiquitin ligase) is a
protein that
recruits an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating
enzyme that has been
loaded with ubiquitin...

ligase 1 also DNA
ligase I, is an
enzyme that in
humans is
encoded by the LIG1 gene. DNA
ligase 1 is the only
known eukaryotic DNA
ligase involved...
- The
ligase chain reaction (LCR) is a
method of DNA amplification. The
ligase chain reaction (LCR) is an
amplification process that
differs from polymerase...
