The C-terminal domain of human Rev1 contains independent binding sites for DNA polymerase ? and Rev7 subunit of polymerase ?.


ABSTRACT: Human Rev1 is a translesion synthesis (TLS) DNA polymerase involved in bypass replication across sites of DNA damage and postreplicational gap-filling. Rev1 plays an essential structural role in TLS by providing a binding platform for other TLS polymerases that insert nucleotides across DNA lesions (pol?, pol?, pol?) and extend the distorted primer-terminus (pol?). We use NMR spectroscopy to demonstrate that the Rev1 C-terminal domain utilizes independent interaction interfaces to simultaneously bind a fragment of the 'inserter' pol? and Rev7 subunit of the 'extender' pol?, thereby serving as a cassette that may accommodate several polymerases making them instantaneously available for TLS.

Human Rev1 is a translesion synthesis (TLS) DNA polymerase involved in bypass replication across sites of DNA damage and postreplicational gap-filling. Rev1 plays an essential structural role in TLS by providing a binding platform for other TLS polymerases that insert nucleotides across DNA lesions (polη, polι, polκ) and extend the distorted primer-terminus (polς).
