text
  • REV3L and MAD2L2 show an unexpected increase in expression during G(2)/M phase, but they localize independently in mitotic cells
  • basic FUNCTION
  • DNA polymerase, zeta, catalytic subunit, involved in reduction of DNA damage, (tissue-specific) used in translesion replication
  • low fidelity and error prone,acting sequentially after POLI as a mispair extender
  • is believed to play a role in double-strand break (DSB)-induced DNA repair by homologous recombination
  • REV1, REV3L and MAD2L2 play important roles in translesion DNA synthesis (TLS) in which DNA replication bypasses blocking lesions
  • is unique amongst translesion synthesis (TLS) polymerases for its essential role in cell proliferation
  • REV1, REV3L, and MAD2L2 are pivotal proteins in translesion DNA synthesis, which allows DNA synthesis even in the presence of DNA damage
  • biological role for REV3L in tolerating DNA damage and enabling proliferative responses
  • required for the efficient replication of CFSs during G(2)/M phase
  • involved in translesion DNA synthesis (TLS), is capable of synthesizing directly across template DNA lesions
