TL;DR: Site-directed mutagenesis of the large fragment of DNA polymerase I (Klenow fragment) yielded two mutant proteins lacking 3',5'-exonuclease activity but having normal polymerase activity, which suggest that one metal ion plays a role in substrate binding while the other is involved in catalysis of the exonucleasing reaction.

DNA polymerase fidelity: kinetics, structure, and checkpoints.
TL;DR: Some polymerases apparently show more discrimination between correctly paired and mispaired dNTPs in the binding step, and polymerases may differ in terms of which step of the reaction is rate-limiting in correct and incorrect insertion reactions.

Identification of residues critical for the polymerase activity of the Klenow fragment of DNA polymerase I from Escherichia coli.
TL;DR: Screening of the mutations in vivo for the classical polA-defective phenotype (sensitivity to DNA damage) demonstrated that a genetic screen of this type may be a reasonable predictor or kcat or of DNA binding affinity in future mutational studies.
