DNA Polymerases β and λ Mediate Overlapping and Independent Roles in Base Excision Repair in Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts
Base excision repair (BER) is a DNA repair pathway designed to correct small base lesions in genomic DNA. While DNA polymerase beta (pol beta) is known to be the main polymerase in the BER pathway, various studies have implicated other DNA polymerases in back-up roles. One such polymerase, DNA polymerase lambda (pol lambda), was shown to be important in BER of oxidative DNA damage. To further e...

Base excision repair (BER) is a DNA repair pathway designed to correct small base lesions in genomic DNA. While DNA polymerase beta (pol b) is known to be the main polymerase in the BER pathway, various studies have implicated other DNA polymerases in back-up roles. One such polymerase, DNA polymerase lambda (pol l), was shown to be important in BER of oxidative DNA damage. To further explore r...
متن کاملImpact of ribonucleotide incorporation by DNA polymerases β and λ on oxidative base excision repair
Oxidative stress is a very frequent source of DNA damage. Many cellular DNA polymerases (Pols) can incorporate ribonucleotides (rNMPs) during DNA synthesis. However, whether oxidative stress-triggered DNA repair synthesis contributes to genomic rNMPs incorporation is so far not fully understood. Human specialized Pols β and λ are the important enzymes involved in the oxidative stress tolerance,...
متن کاملDNA Polymerase Mediates a Back-up Base Excision Repair Activity in Extracts of Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts*
Mammalian DNA polymerase (pol) is a member of the X-family of DNA polymerases and has striking enzymatic and structural similarities to mammalian DNA pol . Because pol provides two important enzymatic activities for base excision repair (BER), we examined whether pol might also contribute to BER. We used extracts from mouse embryonic fibroblasts representing wild-type and null genotypes for pol...
متن کاملPol β associated complex and base excision repair factors in mouse fibroblasts
During mammalian base excision repair (BER) of lesion-containing DNA, it is proposed that toxic strand-break intermediates generated throughout the pathway are sequestered and passed from one step to the next until repair is complete. This stepwise process is termed substrate channeling. A working model evaluated here is that a complex of BER factors may facilitate the BER process. FLAG-tagged ...
