Abstract excerpt
DNA polymerase iota (Polι) can repair several types of DNA damage but has extremely low fidelity. Previous studies have shown an aberrantly elevated Polι expression in human esophageal squamous cell cancer tissues. However, there were few reports describing the role of Polι in esophageal cancer progression. Based on Real-time PCR assay, we found Polι expression was up-regulated in esophageal cancer tissues...
