    basic FUNCTION
  • also possessing an intrinsic proofreading function that reduces the levels of errors during replication
  • plays a central role in chromosomal DNA replication, repair, and recombination
  • WRN and POLD1, are involved in maintaining cellular genomic stability
  • plays an essential role in genome stability by virtue of its crucial DNA replication and repair capacity
  • important role for POLD1 function in adipose tissue homeostasis
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, replication
    nucleotide, repair
