Novel role for the C terminus of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rev1 in mediating protein-protein interactions.

Abstract excerpt

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae REV3/7-encoded polymerase zeta and Rev1 are central to the replicative bypass of DNA lesions, a process called translesion synthesis (TLS). While yeast polymerase zeta extends from distorted DNA structures, Rev1 predominantly incorporates C residues from across a template G and a variety of DNA lesions. Intriguingly, Rev1 catalytic activity does not appear to be required for TLS....
