Abstract excerpt
The 3 million-base pair genome of Sulfolobus solfataricus likely undergoes depurination/depyrimidination frequently in vivo. These unrepaired abasic lesions are expected to be bypassed by Dpo4, the only Y-family DNA polymerase from S. solfataricus. Interestingly, these error-prone Y-family enzyme...
