DNA-dependent DNA polymerase is a polypeptide acting as a biocatalyst. This enzyme is required to make new strand of DNA in the DNA replication process. For it to work efficiently, it requires a template. Thus, it uses the old DNA strand as template to make new strand by adding nucleotides one by one. Reverse transcriptase has the ability to make DNA using RNA as template.
