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)
