== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/DPOLX_ASFB7 DPOLX_ASFB7] Error-prone polymerase lacking a proofreading 3'-5' exonuclease which plays a role in viral DNA repair. Specifically binds intermediates in the single-nucleotide base-excision repair process. Also catalyzes DNA polymerization with low nucleotide-insertion fidelity. Together with the viral DNA ligase, fills the single nucleotide gaps generated by the AP endonuclease.<ref>PMID:12595253</ref> <ref>PMID:11685239</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
In addition to storage of genetic information, DNA can also catalyze various reactions. RNA-cleaving DNAzymes are the catalytic DNAs discovered the earliest, and they can cleave RNAs in a sequence-specific manner. Owing to their great potential in medical therapeutics, virus control, and gene silencing for disease treatments, RNA-cleaving DNAzymes have been extensively studied; however, the mechanistic understandings of their substrate recognition and catalysis remain elusive. Here, we report three catalytic form 8-17 DNAzyme crystal structures. 8-17 DNAzyme adopts a V-shape fold, and the Pb(2+) cofactor is bound at the pre-organized pocket. The structures with Pb(2+) and the modification at the cleavage site captured the pre-catalytic state of the RNA cleavage reaction, illustrating the unexpected Pb(2+)-accelerated catalysis, intrinsic tertiary interactions, and molecular kink at the active site. Our studies reveal that DNA is capable of forming a compacted structure and that the functionality-limited bio-polymer can have a novel solution for a functional need in catalysis.
