Participates in immunoglobulin (Ig) light chain gene rearrangement in V(D)J recombination. Publication Abstract from PubMed Oxidized dGTP (8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2 -deoxyguanosine triphosphate, 8-oxodGTP) insertion by DNA polymerases strongly promotes cancer and human disease. How DNA polymerases discriminate against oxidized and undamaged nucleotides, especially in error-prone double strand break (DSB) repair, is poorly understood. High-resolution time-lapse X-ray crystallography snapshots of DSB repair polymerase mu undergoing DNA synthesis reveal that a third active site metal promotes insertion of oxidized and undamaged dGTP in the canonical anti-conformation opposite template cytosine. The product metal bridged O8 with product oxygens, and was not observed in the syn-conformation opposite template adenine (At). Rotation of At into the syn-conformation enabled undamaged dGTP misinsertion. Exploiting metal and substrate dynamics in a rigid active site allows 8-oxodGTP to circumvent polymerase fidelity safeguards to promote pro-mutagenic double strand break repair.
