摘要
The identification and partial purification by Arthur Kornberg and his colleagues in 1956 of an enzyme ? DNA polymerase I of Escherichia coli ? that catalysed the stable incorporation of deoxyribonucleotides into DNA in vitro came as a surprise. At the time, most scientists in the field believed that DNA synthesis was too complicated to be accurately reflected outside the living cell.
