Abstract excerpt
POL32 encodes a non-essential subunit of Poldelta and plays a role in Poldelta processivity and DNA repair. In order to understand how Pol32 is involved in these processes, we performed extensive genetic analysis and demonstrated that POL32 is required for Polzeta-mediated translesion synthesis, but not for Poleta-mediated activity. Unlike Polzeta, inactivation of Pol32 does not result in decreased spontaneous...
