摘要
DNA polymerases must select and incorporate the correct deoxynucleoside 5'-triphosphate from a pool of structurally similar molecules. The structural and kinetic characterization of DNA polymerase beta indicates that this polymerase must stabilize the templating base to achieve efficient polymerization with high fidelity.
