Journal ArticleDOI

The dinB Gene Encodes a Novel E. coli DNA Polymerase, DNA Pol IV, Involved in Mutagenesis

TL;DR: Results indicate that the uncovered DNA polymerase activity may be a common feature of all these homologous proteins within the UmuC-like protein family.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human SLX4 is a Holliday junction resolvase subunit that binds multiple DNA repair/recombination endonucleases

TL;DR: The identification of Slx4 orthologs in metazoa, including fly MUS312, essential for meiotic recombination, and human BTBD12, an ATM/ATR checkpoint kinase substrate, are reported, suggesting that SLX4 acts as a docking platform for multiple structure-specific endonucleases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trading places: how do DNA polymerases switch during translesion DNA synthesis?

TL;DR: This review addresses recent advances in the understanding of DNA polymerase switching during TLS in bacteria such as E. coli and in lower and higher eukaryotes.
Journal ArticleDOI

All three SOS-inducible DNA polymerases (Pol II, Pol IV and Pol V) are involved in induced mutagenesis.

TL;DR: It is shown that, depending upon the nature of the DNA damage and its sequence context, the two additional SOS‐inducible DNA polymerases, Pol II (polB) and Pol IV (dinB), are also involved in error‐free and mutagenic translesion synthesis (TLS).
