Abstract excerpt
Accurate DNA synthesis by the replicative DNA polymerases alpha, delta, and epsilon is critical for genome stability in eukaryotes. In humans, over 20 SNPs were reported that result in amino-acid changes in Poldelta or Polepsilon. In addition, Poldelta variants were found in colon-cancer cell lin...
