Abstract excerpt
The use of translesion synthesis (TLS) polymerases to bypass DNA lesions during replication constitutes an important mechanism to restart blocked/stalled DNA replication forks. Because TLS polymerases generally have low fidelity on undamaged DNA, the cell must regulate the interaction of TLS polymerases with damaged versus undamaged DNA to maintain genome integrity. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae checkpoint...
