DNA hybridization

a technique used to determine the relatedness of microorganisms by the speed and

efficiency of the reassociation of single-stranded DNA to form double-stranded DNA
when one of the strands originates from one organism and the other strand from another
organism; occurs when the base sequences are complementary or nearly so.
DNA ligase
an enzyme that leads to the formation of a phosphodiester bond at a break of one strand
in duplex DNA; a part of the DNA repair system.

DNA nucleotidylexotransferase
an enzyme that can catalyze the addition of a nucleotide, presented as a nucleoside
triphosphate, on a DNA or similar polydeoxynucleotide; has been used in DNA
recombination studies to add nucleotides to form homopolymer tails. Syn: terminal
addition enzyme, terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase.
