General annotation (Comments)

Function

Repair polymerase that plays a key role in base-excision repair. Has 5'-deoxyribose-5-phosphate lyase (dRP lyase) activity that removes the 5' sugar phosphate and also acts as a DNA polymerase that adds one nucleotide to the 3' end of the arising single-nucleotide gap. Conducts 'gap-filling' DNA synthesis in a stepwise distributive fashion rather than in a processive fashion as for other DNA polymerases.

Catalytic activity

Deoxynucleoside triphosphate + DNA(n) = diphosphate + DNA(n+1).

Cofactor

Binds 2 magnesium ions per subunit.

Subunit structure

Interacts with APEX1, HUWE1/ARF-BP1, STUB1/CHIP and USP47 By similarity. Monomer.

Subcellular location

Nucleus. Cytoplasm By similarity. Note: Cytoplasmic in normal conditions. Translocates to the nucleus following DNA damage By similarity.

Domain

Residues 239-252 form a flexible loop which appears to affect the polymerase fidelity.

Post-translational modification

Methylation by PRMT6 stimulates the polymerase activity by enhancing DNA binding and processivity By similarity.

Ubiquitinated at Lys-41, Lys-61 and Lys-81: monoubiquitinated by HUWE1/ARF-BP1. Monoubiquitinated protein is then the target of STUB1/CHIP, which catalyzes polyubiquitination from monoubiquitin, leading to degradation by the proteasome. USP47 mediates the deubiquitination of monoubiquitinated protein, preventing polyubiquitination by STUB1/CHIP and its subsequent degradation By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the DNA polymerase type-X family.
