Name DNA polymerase eta
Synonyms
  1. Radiation-sensitive protein 30
  2. Y-family DNA polymerase H
  3. AtRAD30
  4. AtPOLH
Gene Name POLH
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function Error-free DNA polymerase specifically involved in DNA repair. Plays an important role in translesion synthesis (TLS), 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 and confers resistance to ultraviolet light. Depending on the context, it inserts the correct base, but may cause base transitions and transversions. Forms a Schiff base with 5'-deoxyribose phosphate at abasic sites, but does not have lyase activity. Targets POLI to replication foci. Exhibits cyclobutane dimer nonmutagenic bypass activity in vitro.
