DNA Polymerase δ Is Required for Human Mismatch Repair in Vitro

Open access
Longley, Matthew J., Pierce, Andrew J., Modrich, Paul·1997·Journal of Biological Chemistry

Abstract

HeLa nuclear extract was resolved into a depleted fraction incapable of supporting mismatch repair in vitro, and repair activity was restored upon the addition of a purified fraction isolated from HeLa cells by in vitro complementation assay. The highly enriched complementing activity copurified with a DNA polymerase, and the most pure fraction contained DNA polymerase delta but was free of detectable DNA polymerases alpha and epsilon. Calf thymus DNA polymerase delta also fully restored mismatch repair to the depleted extract, indicating DNA polymerase delta is required for mismatch repair in human cells. However, due to the presence of DNA polymerases alpha and epsilon in the depleted extract, potential involvement of one or both of these activities in the reaction cannot be excluded.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
