Abstract

The Escherichia coli protein DinB is a newly identified error-prone DNA polymerase. Recently, a human homolog of DinB was identified and named DINB1. We report that the DINB1 gene encodes a DNA polymerase (designated polκ), which incorporates mismatched bases on a nondamaged template with a high frequency. Moreover, polκ bypasses an abasic site and N-2–acetylaminofluorene (AAF)-adduct in an error-prone manner but does not bypass a cis–syn or (6-4) thymine–thymine dimer or a cisplatin-adduct. Therefore, our results implicate an important role for polκ in the mutagenic bypass of certain types of DNA lesions.

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.
