The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA polymerase IV: possible involvement in double strand break DNA repair.
We identified and purified a new DNA polymerase (DNA polymerase IV), which is similar to mammalian DNA polymerase beta, from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and suggested that it is encoded by YCR14C (POLX) on chromosome III. Here, we provided a direct evidence that the purified DNA polymerase IV is indeed encoded by POLX. Strains harboring a pol4 deletion mutation exhibit neither mitotic growth defec...
متن کاملBiochemical Properties of Hmi1p, a Dna Helicase from Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Mitochondria
Hmi1p is a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondrial DNA helicase that isessential for the maintenance of functional mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA).Hmi1p has also an effect on the replication of nonfunctional ρ mtDNA. In bothwild type and ρ strains Hmi1p is required for processive synthesis of mtDNA.Here we show, using restriction enzyme digested ρ mtDNAs separated in 2dimensional agaro...
متن کاملThe DNA binding properties of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad51 protein.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad51 protein is the paradigm for eukaryotic ATP-dependent DNA strand exchange proteins. To explain some of the unique characteristics of DNA strand exchange promoted by Rad51 protein, when compared with its prokaryotic homologue the Escherichia coli RecA protein, we analyzed the DNA binding properties of the Rad51 protein. Rad51 protein binds both single-stranded DNA (...
متن کاملDNA binding properties of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae DAT1 gene product.
The DAT1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a DNA binding protein (Dat1p) that specifically recognizes the minor groove of non-alternating oligo(A).oligo(T) tracts. Sequence-specific recognition requires arginine residues found within three perfectly repeated pentads (G-R-K-P-G) of the Dat1p DNA binding domain [Reardon, B. J., Winters, R. S., Gordon, D., and Winter, E. (1993) Proc. Natl. ...
متن کاملParticipation of DNA polymerase zeta in replication of undamaged DNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Translesion synthesis DNA polymerases contribute to DNA damage tolerance by mediating replication of damaged templates. Due to the low fidelity of these enzymes, lesion bypass is often mutagenic. We have previously shown that, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the contribution of the error-prone DNA polymerase zeta (Polzeta) to replication and mutagenesis is greatly enhanced if the normal replisome ...
