POLH

Q9Y253

Plays a role as a regulator of Rho activity duringcytokinesis. May play a role in junctional plaques.{ECO:0000269|PubMed:17115030}. DNA polymerase specifically involved in the DNA repairby translesion synthesis (TLS) (PubMed:10385124, PubMed:11743006,PubMed:24449906). Due to low processivity on both damaged andnormal DNA, cooperates with the heterotetrameric (REV3L, REV7,POLD2 and POLD3) POLZ complex for complete bypass of DNA lesions.Inserts one or 2 nucleotide(s) opposite the lesion, the primer isfurther extended by the tetrameric POLZ complex. In the case of1,2-intrastrand d(GpG)-cisplatin cross-link, inserts dCTP oppositethe 3' guanine (PubMed:24449906). Particularly important for therepair of UV-induced pyrimidine dimers (PubMed:10385124,PubMed:11743006). Although inserts the correct base, may causebase transitions and transversions depending upon the context. Mayplay a role in hypermutation at immunoglobulin genes(PubMed:11376341, PubMed:14734526). Forms a Schiff base with 5'-deoxyribose phosphate at abasic sites, but does not have any lyaseactivity, preventing the release of the 5'-deoxyribose phosphate(5'-dRP) residue. This covalent trapping of the enzyme by the 5'-dRP residue inhibits its DNA synthetic activity during baseexcision repair, thereby avoiding high incidence of mutagenesis(PubMed:14630940). Targets POLI to replication foci(PubMed:12606586). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10385124,ECO:0000269|PubMed:11376341, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11743006,ECO:0000269|PubMed:12606586, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14630940,ECO:0000269|PubMed:14734526, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24449906}.
