Printedonacid-freepaper SpringerispartofSpringerScience+BusinessMedia(www.springer.com) Preface More than any other class of enzymes, nucleic acid polymerases are directly responsible for an overabundance of enzymatic, regulatory, and maintenance activities in the cell. DNA polymerases accurately replicate copies of genomes in all forms of life as well as have specialized roles in DNA repair and immune response.RNApolymerasesaremostnotedfortheiractiverolesincontrollinggene expression during transcription but can also be utilized in self-replicating ribozymes and viral replication. Although the general sequence homology, struc- turalarchitecture,andmechanismareconserved,theyhaveevolvedtoincorporate deoxynucleotides (dNTPs) or ribonucleotides (rNTPs) explicitly. Various nucleic acidpolymeraseshavespecificitiesforRNAorDNAtemplates,incorporatedNTPs or rNTPs, and can be template dependent or independent. Here, we provide examples on the latest understanding of each class of nucleic acid polymerase, their structural and kinetic mechanisms, and their respective roles in the central dogmaoflife. This book provides a catalog and description of the multitude of polymerases (both DNA and RNA) that contribute to genomic replication, maintenance, and geneexpression.Evolutionhasresultedintremendouslyefficientenzymescapable ofrepeatedextremelyrapidsynthesesthathavecaptivatedresearchers’interestsfor decades. We are inspired by work that started over 60 years ago and is actively pursued today for a fundamental understanding of life, contributions to human healthanddisease,andcurrentandfuturebiotechnologyapplications.Nucleicacid polymerasesarefascinatingonanumberoflevels,yetstillcontinuetosurpriseus withnovelmodesofactionrevealedthroughongoingandfuturestudiesdescribed withinthisvolume.
