GeneID: 5429 Human POLH

Swiss-port # Q9Y253 Human DNA polymerase eta

Gene Symbol POLH
Gene Full Name polymerase (DNA directed), eta
Background This gene encodes a member of the Y family of specialized DNA polymerases. It copies undamaged DNA with a lower fidelity than other DNA-directed polymerases. However, it accurately replicates UV-damaged DNA; when thymine dimers are present, this polymerase inserts the complementary nucleotides in the newly synthesized DNA, thereby bypassing the lesion and suppressing the mutagenic effect of UV-induced DNA damage. This polymerase is thought to be involved in hypermutation during immunoglobulin class switch recombination. Mutations in this gene result in XPV, a variant type of xeroderma pigmentosum. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]
Function DNA polymerase specifically involved in DNA repair. Plays an important role in translesion synthesis, where the normal high fidelity DNA polymerases cannot proceed and DNA synthesis stalls. Plays an important role in the repair of UV-induced pyrimidine dimers. Depending on the context, it inserts the correct base, but causes frequent base transitions and transversions. May play a role in hypermutation at immunoglobulin genes. Forms a Schiff base with 5'-deoxyribose phosphate at abasic sites, but does not have lyase activity. Targets POLI to replication foci.

Cellular Localization Nucleus. Accumulates at replication forks after DNA damage. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 78 kDa
PTM Monoubiquitinated by RCHY1/PIRH2; ubiquitination inhibits the ability of PolH to interact with PCNA and to bypass UV-induced lesions. [UniProt]
