An iron-sulfur cluster in the polymerase domain of yeast DNA polymerase ε.
DNA polymerase ε (Polε) is a multi-subunit polymerase that contributes to genomic stability via its roles in leading strand replication and the repair of damaged DNA. Polε from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is composed of four subunits--Pol2, Dpb2, Dpb3, and Dpb4. Here, we report the presence of a [Fe-S] cluster directly within the active polymerase domain of Pol2 (residues 1-1187). We show that bin...
متن کاملCrystal Structure of Yeast DNA Polymerase ε Catalytic Domain
DNA polymerase ε (Polε) is a multi-subunit polymerase that contributes to genomic stability via its roles in leading strand replication and the repair of damaged DNA. Here we report the ternary structure of the Polε catalytic subunit (Pol2) bound to a nascent G:C base pair (Pol2G:C). Pol2G:C has a typical B-family polymerase fold and embraces the template-primer duplex with the palm, fingers, t...
متن کاملStrand displacement synthesis by yeast DNA polymerase ε
DNA polymerase ε (Pol ε) is a replicative DNA polymerase with an associated 3'-5' exonuclease activity. Here, we explored the capacity of Pol ε to perform strand displacement synthesis, a process that influences many DNA transactions in vivo We found that Pol ε is unable to carry out extended strand displacement synthesis unless its 3'-5' exonuclease activity is removed. However, the wild-type ...
متن کاملSwitching between polymerase and exonuclease sites in DNA polymerase ε
The balance between exonuclease and polymerase activities promotes DNA synthesis over degradation when nucleotides are correctly added to the new strand by replicative B-family polymerases. Misincorporations shift the balance toward the exonuclease site, and the balance tips back in favor of DNA synthesis when the incorrect nucleotides have been removed. Most B-family DNA polymerases have an ex...
متن کاملHuman Dna Polymerase Ε Associated Proteins
DNA polymerase ε from HeLa cells has been purified as a heterodimer of a 261 kDa catalytic subunit and a tightly associated smaller polypeptide, the B-subunit. The cDNAs encoding the B-subunits of both human and mouse Pol ε were cloned and shown to encode proteins with a predicted molecular weight of 59 kDa. These subunits are 90 % identical and share 22 % identity with the 80 kDa Bsubunit of S...
