Title: Structural Basis of High-Fidelity DNA Synthesis by Yeast DNA Polymerase δ

Journal Article · · Nature Structural and Molecular Biology
OSTI ID:980510

DNA polymerase ? (Pol ?) has a crucial role in eukaryotic replication. Now the crystal structure of the yeast DNA Pol ? catalytic subunit in complex with template primer and incoming nucleotide is presented at 2.0-A resolution, providing insight into its high fidelity and a framework to understand the effects of mutations involved in tumorigenesis.
