General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function DNA polymerases have abortive DNA synthesis upon encountering apurinic/apyrimidinic sites. Under running start conditions, polB can incorporate in front of the damage and even replicate to the full-length oligonucleotides containing a specific apurinic/apyrimidinic site, but only when present at a molar excess. Conversely, bypassing activity of polD is strictly inhibited Pyrococcus abyssi
