Summary

POLL (DNA polymerase lambda, HGNC:9184) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 10q24.32, encoding DNA polymerase lambda (Q9UGP5). DNA polymerase that functions in several pathways of DNA repair.

This gene encodes a DNA polymerase. DNA polymerases catalyze DNA-template-directed extension of the 3’-end of a DNA strand. This particular polymerase, which is a member of the X family of DNA polymerases, likely plays a role in non-homologous end joining and other DNA repair processes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.

Function. DNA polymerase that functions in several pathways of DNA repair. Involved in base excision repair (BER) responsible for repair of lesions that give rise to abasic (AP) sites in DNA. Also contributes to DNA double-strand break repair by non-homologous end joining and homologous recombination. Has both template-dependent and template-independent (terminal transferase) DNA polymerase activities. Also has a 5’-deoxyribose-5-phosphate lyase (dRP lyase) activity.

Subunit / interactions. Interacts with PCNA. Interacts with PAXX; promoting POLL recruitment to double-strand breaks (DSBs) and stimulation of the end-filling activity of POLL. Interacts with XRCC4; promoting POLL recruitment to double-strand breaks (DSBs) and stimulation of the end-filling activity of POLL. Interacts with NHEJ1/XLF; promoting POLL recruitment to double-strand breaks (DSBs) and stimulation of the end-filling activity of POLL.

Subcellular location. Nucleus. Chromosome.

Tissue specificity. Expressed in a number of tissues. Abundant in testis.

Similarity. Belongs to the DNA polymerase type-X family.
