In E. coli, the principal replication enzyme is DNA polymerase III, which is a complex enzyme that includes a core polymerase, a proofreading exonuclease, and other subunits that enhance the enzyme's processivity and efficiency.DNA polymerase I is also involved in DNA replication in E. coli, but it has a secondary role in removing RNA primers and filling in gaps left behind by the main replication enzyme, DNA polymerase III.
