[[DNA Polymerase I]] is a family A enzyme whose main function is excision repair of DNA strands through 3'-5' and 5'-3' exonuclease. This polymerase also helps with Okazaki fragment maturation. '''Okazaki fragments''' are short synthesized strands of DNA that form the lagging strand during DNA replication. When Polymerase I does replicate, it starts adding nucleotides at the RNA primer and moves in the 5'-3' direction. This polymerase is also the major polymerase in ''E. coli''.<ref name="ncbi" /> See also [[Taq DNA polymerase (Hebrew)]]. | [[DNA Polymerase I]] is a family A enzyme whose main function is excision repair of DNA strands through 3'-5' and 5'-3' exonuclease.
