Error-free and error-prone lesion bypass by human DNA polymerase κ in vitro
Error-free lesion bypass and error-prone lesion bypass are important cellular responses to DNA damage during replication, both of which require a DNA polymerase (Pol). To identify lesion bypass DNA polymerases, we have purified human Polκ encoded by the DINB1 gene and examined its response to damaged DNA templates. Here, we show that human Polκ is a novel lesion bypass polymerase in vitro. Puri...
متن کاملError-prone lesion bypass by human DNA polymerase eta.
DNA lesion bypass is an important cellular response to genomic damage during replication. Human DNA polymerase eta (Pol(eta)), encoded by the Xeroderma pigmentosum variant (XPV) gene, is known for its activity of error-free translesion synthesis opposite a TT cis-syn cyclobutane dimer. Using purified human Pol(eta), we have examined bypass activities of this polymerase opposite several other DN...
متن کاملThe Werner syndrome protein limits the error-prone 8-oxo-dG lesion bypass activity of human DNA polymerase kappa
Human DNA polymerase kappa (hpol κ) is the only Y-family member to preferentially insert dAMP opposite 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG) during translesion DNA synthesis. We have studied the mechanism of action by which hpol κ activity is modulated by the Werner syndrome protein (WRN), a RecQ helicase known to influence repair of 8-oxo-dG. Here we show that WRN stimulates the 8-oxo...
متن کاملMolecular insights into error-prone DNA replication and error-free lesion bypass.
6·4 pp CPD error propensity when dealing with undamaged DNA, which distinguishes them from known high-fidelity DNA polymerases. Most of their biological roles and functions have not been elucidated yet. Nevertheless, recent investigations suggest the involvement of pol L together with poll;, in error-prone translesion DNA synthesisPJ Furthermore, it has been shown that pol L possesses lyase act...
متن کاملTwo-polymerase mechanisms dictate error-free and error-prone translesion DNA synthesis in mammals.
DNA replication across blocking lesions occurs by translesion DNA synthesis (TLS), involving a multitude of mutagenic DNA polymerases that operate to protect the mammalian genome. Using a quantitative TLS assay, we identified three main classes of TLS in human cells: two rapid and error-free, and the third slow and error-prone. A single gene, REV3L, encoding the catalytic subunit of DNA polymer...
