Function

DPOLM_HUMAN Gap-filling polymerase involved in repair of DNA double-strand breaks by non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). Participates in immunoglobulin (Ig) light chain gene rearrangement in V(D)J recombination.[1] [2] [3] [4]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Pol mu is capable of performing gap-filling repair synthesis in the nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway. Together with DNA ligase, misincorporation of dGTP opposite the templating T by Pol mu results in a promutagenic T:G mispair, leading to genomic instability. Here, crystal structures and kinetics of Pol mu substituting dGTP for dATP on gapped DNA substrates containing templating T were determined and compared. Pol mu is highly mutagenic on a 2-nt gapped DNA substrate, with T:dGTP base pairing at the 3' end of the gap. Two residues (Lys438 and Gln441) interact with T:dGTP and fine tune the active site microenvironments. The in-crystal misincorporation reaction of Pol mu revealed an unexpected second dGTP in the active site, suggesting its potential mutagenic role among human X family polymerases in NHEJ.
