The Mutational Specificity of DNA Polymerase - @ during in Vitro DNA
The frequency and specificity of mutations produced in uitro by eucaryotic DNA polymerase-@ have been determined in a forward mutation assay using a 250base target sequence in M13mp2 DNA. Homogeneous DNA polymerase-@, isolated from four different sources, produces mutations at a frequency of 4-6%/ single round of gap-filling DNA synthesis. DNA sequence analyses of 460 independent mutants res...
متن کاملComparative Molecular Dynamics Studies of Human DNA Polymerase η
High-energy ultraviolet radiation damages DNA through the formation of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, which stall replication. When the lesion is a thymine-thymine dimer (TTD), human DNA polymerase η (Pol η) assists in resuming the replication process by inserting nucleotides opposite the damaged site. We performed extensive molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate the structural and ...
متن کاملMechanism for priming DNA synthesis by yeast DNA Polymerase α
The DNA Polymerase α (Pol α)/primase complex initiates DNA synthesis in eukaryotic replication. In the complex, Pol α and primase cooperate in the production of RNA-DNA oligonucleotides that prime synthesis of new DNA. Here we report crystal structures of the catalytic core of yeast Pol α in unliganded form, bound to an RNA primer/DNA template and extending an RNA primer with deoxynucleotides. ...
متن کاملStructure–Function Studies of DNA Polymerase λ
DNA polymerase λ (pol λ) functions in DNA repair with its main roles considered to be filling short gaps during repair of double-strand breaks by nonhomologous end joining and during base excision repair. As indicated by structural and biochemical studies over the past 10 years, pol λ shares many common properties with other family X siblings (pol β, pol μ, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transfe...
