Preferential Incorporation of G Opposite Template T by the Low-Fidelity Human DNA Polymerase ι
Open accessAbstract
DNA polymerase activity is essential for replication, recombination, repair, and mutagenesis. All DNA polymerases studied so far from any biological source synthesize DNA by the Watson-Crick base-pairing rule, incorporating A, G, C, and T opposite the templates T, C, G, and A, respectively. Non-Watson-Crick base pairs would lead to mutations. In this report, we describe the ninth human DNA polymerase, Pol(iota), encoded by the RAD30B gene. We show that human Pol(iota) violates the Watson-Crick base-pairing rule opposite template T. During base selection, human Pol(iota) preferred T-G base pairing, leading to G incorporation opposite template T. The resulting T-G base pair was less efficiently extended by human Pol(iota) compared to the Watson-Crick base pairs. Consequently, DNA synthesis frequently aborted opposite template T, a property we designated the T stop. This T stop restricted human Pol(iota) to a very short stretch of DNA synthesis. Furthermore, kinetic analyses show that human Pol(iota) copies template C with extraordinarily low fidelity, misincorporating T, A, and C with unprecedented frequencies of 1/9, 1/10, and 1/11, respectively. Human Pol(iota) incorporated one nucleotide opposite a template abasic site more efficiently than opposite a template T, suggesting a role for human Pol(iota) in DNA lesion bypass. The unique features of preferential G incorporation opposite template T and T stop suggest that DNA Pol(iota) may additionally play a specialized function in human biology.

Pol η inserts dGTP opposite template T even more efficiently than it inserts A opposite T, so its error rate for this mispair approaches 1.
“The most striking violation of Watson-Crick base pairing rules is exhibited by Pol , which inserts dGTP opposite template T even more efficiently than it inserts A opposite T (12-14), i.e. its error rate for this mispair approaches 1 (Fig. 1).”

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.
