Abstract
Genetic information is vital in the cell cycle of DNA-based organisms. DNA polymerases (DNA Pols) are crucial players in transactions dealing with these processes. Therefore, the detailed understanding of the structure, function, and mechanism of these proteins has been the focus of significant effort. Computational simulations have been applied to investigate various facets of DNA polymerase structure and function. These simulations have provided significant insights over the years. This perspective presents the results of various computational studies that have been employed to research different aspects of DNA polymerases including detailed reaction mechanism investigation, mutagenicity of different metal cations, possible factors for fidelity synthesis, and discovery/functional characterization of cancer-related mutations on DNA polymerases.
