Division of labor of Y-family polymerases in translesion-DNA synthesis for distinct types of DNA damage.

Living organisms are continuously under threat from a vast array of DNA-damaging agents, which impact genome DNA. DNA replication machinery stalls at damaged template DNA. The stalled replication fork is restarted via bypass replication by translesion DNA-synthesis polymerases, including the Y-famil...

description Living organisms are continuously under threat from a vast array of DNA-damaging agents, which impact genome DNA. DNA replication machinery stalls at damaged template DNA. The stalled replication fork is restarted via bypass replication by translesion DNA-synthesis polymerases, including the Y-family polymerases Polη, Polι, and Polκ, which possess the ability to incorporate nucleotides opposite the damaged template. To investigate the division of labor among these polymerases in vivo, we generated POLη-/-, POLι-/-, POLκ-/-, double knockout (KO), and triple knockout (TKO) mutants in all combinations from human TK6 cells. TKO cells exhibited a hypersensitivity to ultraviolet (UV), cisplatin (CDDP), and methyl methanesulfonate (MMS), confirming the pivotal role played by these polymerases in bypass replication of damaged template DNA.
