Dual role of φ29 DNA polymerase Lys529 in stabilisation of the DNA priming-terminus and the terminal protein-priming residue at the polymerisation site.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Resolution of the crystallographic structure of φ29 DNA polymerase binary and ternary complexes showed that residue Lys529, located at the C-terminus of the palm subdomain, establishes contacts with the 3' terminal phosphodiester bond.

Altered hematopoiesis in mice lacking DNA polymerase mu is due to inefficient double-strand break repair. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2009
Polymerase micro (Polmicro) is an error-prone, DNA-directed DNA polymerase that participates in non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) repair. In vivo, Polmicro deficiency results in impaired Vkappa-Jkappa recombination and altered somatic hypermutation and ...

Mechanisms of PARP inhibitor resistance in cancer and insights into the DNA damage response

open access: yesGenome Medicine, 2018
Editorial summary Inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARPi) have entered the clinic for the treatment of patients with cancers that lack homology-directed DNA repair, but drug resistance remains a clinical hurdle.

New link between the RNA polymerase II-CTD and replication stress

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2021
Conflicts between transcription and replication are a major source of replication stress. Our recent findings show that proper dephosphorylation of Serine 5 in the carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) of DNA-directed RNA polymerase II subunit RPB1 is needed to ...

Amplification of 4–9-kb Human Genomic DNA Flanking a Known Site Using a Panhandle PCR Variant

open access: yesBioTechniques, 1997
We present a method for the in vitro amplification of >6.0 kb of DNA flanking a known site. This is accomplished by ligating an oligonucleotide to create an inverted repeat of a portion of the known sequence, followed by single-primer polymerase chain ...

The ability to form homodimers is essential for RDM1 to function in RNA-directed DNA methylation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
RDM1 (RNA-DIRECTED DNA METHYLATION1) is a small plant-specific protein required for RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). RDM1 interacts with RNA polymerase II (Pol II), ARGONAUTE4 (AGO4), and the de novo DNA methyltransferase DOMAINS REARRANGED ...

The Pseudorabies Virus DNA Polymerase Accessory Subunit UL42 Directs Nuclear Transport of the Holoenzyme

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Pseudorabies virus (PRV) DNA replication occurs in the nuclei of infected cells and requires the viral DNA polymerase. The PRV DNA polymerase comprises a catalytic subunit, UL30, and an accessory subunit, UL42, that confers processivity to the enzyme ...
