DnaE uses strand displacement synthesis during Okazaki fragment repair

The paper shows that DnaE, not just Pol I, can efficiently repair Okazaki fragments via strand displacement synthesis in B. subtilis.

DNA polymerase I is an efficient reverse transcriptase that mediates RNA-templated DNA repair synthesis

This study identifies bacterial DNA polymerase I as an efficient reverse transcriptase capable of mediating RNA-templated DNA repair synthesis.
