Ligands: CA, DCP, SF4 Gene: POL3, CDC2, TEX1, YDL102W, D2366 (Baker's yeast), POL31, HUS2, HYS2, SDP5, YJR006W, J1427, YJR83.7 (Baker's yeast), POL32, YJR043C, J1626 (Baker's yeast) Activity: DNA-directed DNA polymerase, with EC number 2.7.7.7 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [DPOD_YEAST] DNA polymerase delta (DNA polymerase III) participates in chromosomal DNA replication. It is required during synthesis of the leading and lagging DNA strands at the replication fork and binds at/or near replication origins and moves along DNA with the replication fork. It has 3'-5' proofreading exonuclease activity that correct errors arising during DNA replication. It is also involved in DNA synthesis during DNA repair. POL3 contains the polymerase active site and most likely the active site for the 3'-5' exonuclease activity. [DPOD3_YEAST] DNA polymerase delta (DNA polymerase III) participates in chromosomal DNA replication. It is required during synthesis of the leading and lagging DNA strands at the replication fork and binds at/or near replication origins and moves along DNA with the replication fork. It has 3'-5' proofreading exonuclease activity that correct errors arising during DNA replication. It is also involved in DNA synthesis during DNA repair.

Publication Abstract from PubMed DNA polymerase delta (Poldelta) plays pivotal roles in eukaryotic DNA replication and repair. Poldelta is conserved from yeast to humans, and mutations in human Poldelta have been implicated in various cancers. Saccharomyces cerevisiae Poldelta consists of catalytic Pol3 and the regulatory Pol31 and Pol32 subunits. Here, we present the near atomic resolution (3.2 A) cryo-EM structure of yeast Poldelta holoenzyme in the act of DNA synthesis. The structure reveals an unexpected arrangement in which the regulatory subunits (Pol31 and Pol32) lie next to the exonuclease domain of Pol3 but do not engage the DNA. The Pol3 C-terminal domain contains a 4Fe-4S cluster and emerges as the keystone of Poldelta assembly. We also show that the catalytic and regulatory subunits rotate relative to each other and that this is an intrinsic feature of the Poldelta architecture. Collectively, the structure provides a framework for understanding DNA transactions at the replication fork.
