== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/POLH_YEAST POLH_YEAST] DNA polymerase specifically involved in DNA repair. Plays an important role in translesion synthesis, where the normal high fidelity DNA polymerases cannot proceed and DNA synthesis stalls. Plays an important role in the repair of UV-induced pyrimidine dimers. Depending on the context, it inserts the correct base, but causes frequent base transitions and transversions. Efficiently incorporates nucleotides opposite to other UV or oxidative DNA damages like O(6)-methylguanine, 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine, 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine of 2'-deoxyguanosine (FaPydG), or p-benzoquinone DNA adducts.<ref>PMID:9409821</ref> <ref>PMID:10347143</ref> <ref>PMID:10601233</ref> <ref>PMID:9974380</ref> <ref>PMID:10924462</ref> <ref>PMID:10713149</ref> <ref>PMID:11027270</ref> <ref>PMID:10932195</ref> <ref>PMID:10725365</ref> <ref>PMID:11062246</ref> <ref>PMID:11545742</ref> <ref>PMID:11113193</ref> <ref>PMID:11238937</ref> <ref>PMID:11054429</ref> <ref>PMID:12110599</ref> <ref>PMID:11861920</ref> <ref>PMID:12899630</ref> <ref>PMID:12665597</ref> <ref>PMID:12888515</ref> <ref>PMID:12692307</ref> <ref>PMID:14527996</ref> <ref>PMID:15157108</ref> <ref>PMID:15544332</ref> <ref>PMID:15284331</ref> <ref>PMID:15333698</ref> <ref>PMID:15024063</ref> <ref>PMID:15779911</ref> <ref>PMID:16181813</ref> <ref>PMID:15520252</ref> <ref>PMID:16366567</ref> <ref>PMID:15743815</ref> <ref>PMID:16866379</ref> <ref>PMID:16387871</ref> <ref>PMID:16415180</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Heterocyclic aromatic amines produce bulky C8 guanine lesions in vivo, which interfere and disrupt DNA and RNA synthesis. These lesions are consequently strong replication blocks. In addition bulky adducts give rise to point and frameshift mutations. The translesion synthesis (TLS) DNA polymerase eta is able to bypass slowly C8 bulky adduct lesions such as the widely studied 2-aminofluorene-dG and its acetylated analogue mainly in an error-free manner. Replicative polymerases are in contrast fully blocked by the acetylated lesion. Here, we show that TLS efficiency of Pol eta depends critically on the size of the bulky adduct forming the lesion. Based on the crystal structure, we show why the bypass reaction is so difficult and we provide a model for the bypass reaction. In our model, TLS is accomplished without rotation of the lesion into the anti conformation as previously thought.
