The replicative DNA polymerase of herpes simplex virus 1 exhibits apurinic/apyrimidinic and 5'-deoxyribose phosphate lyase activities.
Base excision repair (BER) is essential for maintaining genome stability both to counter the accumulation of unusual bases and to protect from base loss in the DNA. Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is a large dsDNA virus that encodes its own DNA replication machinery, including enzymes involved in nucleotide metabolism. We report on a replicative family B and a herpesvirus-encoded DNA Pol that po...
متن کاملIdentification of 5'-deoxyribose phosphate lyase activity in human DNA polymerase gamma and its role in mitochondrial base excision repair in vitro.
Mitochondria have been proposed to possess base excision repair processes to correct oxidative damage to the mitochondrial genome. As the only DNA polymerase (pol) present in mitochondria, pol gamma is necessarily implicated in such processes. Therefore, we tested the ability of the catalytic subunit of human pol gamma to participate in uracil-provoked base excision repair reconstituted in vitr...
متن کاملDNA polymerase β uses its lyase domain in a processive search for DNA damage
DNA polymerase (Pol) β maintains genome fidelity by catalyzing DNA synthesis and removal of a reactive DNA repair intermediate during base excision repair (BER). Situated within the middle of the BER pathway, Pol β must efficiently locate its substrates before damage is exacerbated. The mechanisms of damage search and location by Pol β are largely unknown, but are critical for understanding the...
متن کاملRev1 is a base excision repair enzyme with 5′-deoxyribose phosphate lyase activity
Rev1 is a member of the Y-family of DNA polymerases and is known for its deoxycytidyl transferase activity that incorporates dCMP into DNA and its ability to function as a scaffold factor for other Y-family polymerases in translesion bypass events. Rev1 also is involved in mutagenic processes during somatic hypermutation of immunoglobulin genes. In light of the mutation pattern consistent with ...
متن کاملDeoxyribose Phosphate Aldolase from Rat Liver.
The activity and properties of deoxyribose phosphate aldolase from Escherichia coli and Lactobacillus plantarum have been described in detail by Racker (1) and Pricer and Horecker (2). The enzyme from E. coli was shown to be active at pH values between 6.0 and 8.0 in tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane and phosphate buffers without exhibiting a sharp optimum (1). The enzyme from L. plunturum was sh...
