- Abstract
- Replicative DNA polymerases (DNA pols) increase their fidelity by removing misincorporated nucleotides with their 3'- 5' exonuclease activity. Exonuclease activity reduces translesion synthesis (TLS) efficiency and TLS DNA pols lack 3' 5' exonuclease activity. Here we show that physiological concentrations of pyrophosphate (PP(i)) activate the pyrophosphorolytic activity by DNA pol-lambda, allowing the preferential excision of the incorrectly incorporated A opposite a 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine lesion, or T opposite a 6-methyl-guanine, with respect to the correct C. This is the first example of an alternative proofreading mechanism used during TLS. (literal)
