Abstract excerpt
Translesion replication (TR) past a cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer in Escherichia coli normally requires the UmuD'2C complex, RecA protein, and DNA polymerase III holoenzyme (pol III). However, we find that efficient TR can occur in the absence of the Umu proteins if the 3'-5' exonuclease proofread...
