Title: Structural basis of error-prone DNA synthesis by DNA polymerase θ.
Authors: Chuxuan Li / Leora M Maksoud / Yang Gao /
Abstract: DNA polymerase θ (Pol θ) is an A-family DNA polymerase specialized in DNA double-strand breaks repair and translesion synthesis. Distinct from its high-fidelity homologs in DNA replication, Pol θ ...DNA polymerase θ (Pol θ) is an A-family DNA polymerase specialized in DNA double-strand breaks repair and translesion synthesis. Distinct from its high-fidelity homologs in DNA replication, Pol θ catalyzes template-dependent DNA synthesis with an inherent propensity for error incorporation. However, the structural basis of Pol θ's low-fidelity DNA synthesis is not clear. Here, we present cryo-electron microscopy structures detailing the polymerase domain of human Pol θ in complex with a cognate C:G base pair (bp), a mismatched T:G bp, or a mismatched T:T bp. Our structures illustrate that Pol θ snugly accommodates the mismatched nascent base pairs within its active site with the finger domain well-closed, consistent with our in-solution fluorescence measurement but in contrast to its high-fidelity homologs. In addition, structural examination and mutagenesis study show that unique residues surrounding the active site contribute to the stabilization of the mismatched nascent base pair. Furthermore, Pol θ can efficiently extend from the misincorporated T:G or T:T mismatches, yet with a preference for template or primer looping-out, resulting in insertions and deletions. Collectively, our results elucidate how an A-family polymerase is adapted for error-prone DNA synthesis.

Jan 31, 2019. EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

  • The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
  • The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.
