Terminal Deoxynucleotidyl Transferase

Terminal Deoxynucleotidyl Transferase (TdT) does not require a template for activity, and catalyzes the incorporation of deoxynucleotides into the 3'-OH termini of single- or double-stranded DNA. It requires an oligodeoxynucleotide of at least three bases as a primer.
