There are three principle enzymes involved and they are described below: Helicase - This enzyme harnesses the chemical energy of ATP and separates the two parental DNA strands at the replication fork. DNA Polymerase - this enzyme exists in several forms and each form has a different job. basically speaking though, DNA polymerase primes the strand, adds base pairs, and repairs damages inflcited to the strands during the process. Ligase - puts the two strands back together again once replication of each section is complete.
