چکیده

This article has been published as a correction for an error in the manuscript of Pavlov et al BMC Biology 2004, 2:11. This article has been published as a correction for [1]. The legend for figure 2 in the original article states, "(C) Plot of time-course of DNA synthesis and dTMP turnover by wild-type Pol e. Open circles connected by solid line represent dTMP retained into DNA; open rectangles connected by a dashed line represent excised dTMP. (D) Plot of time-course of DNA synthesis and dTMP turnover by Y831A Pol e. Symbols are the same as in (C)." However, this is incorrect and should be revised to the following, "(C) Plot of time-course of DNA synthesis by wildtype Pol e (open circles connected by solid line) and Y831A Pol e (open rectangles connected by a dashed line). The data are derived from Fig 2A and are based on amount of dTMP incorporated into DNA. (D) Plot of time-course of dTMP generation by 3'->5' exonuclease activity by wild-type Pol e and Y831A Pol e (symbols are the same as in (C)). The data are derived from Fig 2B and based on amount of dTMP excised from DNA (turnover)." We apologise for any inconvenience or confusion that this may have caused. Here we have provided the original figure and the corrected legend, as figure 1.

Regulation of B family DNA polymerase fidelity by a conserved active site residue: characterization of M644W, M644L and M644F mutants of yeast DNA polymerase ε

To better understand the functions and fidelity of DNA polymerase epsilon (Pol epsilon), we report here on the fidelity of yeast Pol epsilon mutants with leucine, tryptophan or phenylalanine replacing Met644. The Met644 side chain interacts with an invariant tyrosine that contacts the sugar of the incoming dNTP. M644W and M644L Pol epsilon synthesize DNA with high fidelity, but M644F Pol epsilo...

The multiple biological roles of the 3'-->5' exonuclease of Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA polymerase delta require switching between the polymerase and exonuclease domains.

Until recently, the only biological function attributed to the 3'-->5' exonuclease activity of DNA polymerases was proofreading of replication errors. Based on genetic and biochemical analysis of the 3'-->5' exonuclease of yeast DNA polymerase delta (Pol delta) we have discerned additional biological roles for this exonuclease in Okazaki fragment maturation and mismatch repair. We asked whether...

Characterization of a replicative DNA polymerase mutant with reduced fidelity and increased translesion synthesis capacity

Changing a highly conserved amino acid in motif A of any of the four yeast family B DNA polymerases, DNA polymerase alpha, delta, epsilon or zeta, results in yeast strains with elevated mutation rates. In order to better understand this phenotype, we have performed structure-function studies of homologous mutants of RB69 DNA polymerase (RB69 pol), a structural model for family B members. When L...

DNA polymerases required for repair of UV-induced damage in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

The ability of yeast DNA polymerase mutant strains to carry out repair synthesis after UV irradiation was studied by analysis of postirradiation molecular weight changes in cellular DNA. Neither DNA polymerase alpha, delta, epsilon, nor Rev3 single mutants evidenced a defect in repair. A mutant defective in all four of these DNA polymerases, however, showed accumulation of single-strand breaks,...

Mutations in the spacer region of Drosophila mitochondrial DNA polymerase affect DNA binding, processivity, and the balance between Pol and Exo function.

The catalytic subunit (alpha) of mitochondrial DNA polymerase (pol gamma) shares conserved DNA polymerase and 3'-5' exonuclease active site motifs with Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I and bacteriophage T7 DNA polymerase. A major difference between the prokaryotic and mitochondrial proteins is the size and sequence of the region between the exonuclease and DNA polymerase domains, referred to a...
