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

The trans-activation domain of the sporulation response regulator Spo0A revealed by X-ray crystallography [PDF]
, 2000 Sporulation in Bacillus involves the induction of scores of genes in a temporally and spatially co-ordinated programme of cell development. Its initiation is under the control of an expanded two-component signal transduction system termed a phosphorelay.

Endogenous RNA-directed DNA polymerase activity in uninfected chicken embryos.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1972 Early chicken embryos that are either positive or negative for group-specific antigens of avian leukosis viruses contained endogenous RNA-directed DNA polymerase activity. This endogenous DNA polymerase activity was not increased after mixture of soluble

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

Chimerization of antibodies by isolation of rearranged genomic variable regions by the polymerase chain reaction [PDF]
, 1991 We describe a new method for amplification, by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), of rearranged segments encoding the variable part of light and heavy chains of an antibody (Ab) from the chromosomal DNA of hybridoma cells for the chimerization ofAbs.
