DNA polymerase
Structure and Activity Associated with Multiple Forms of
Schizosaccharomyces pombe DNA Polymerase
*
, and
(Pol
) isolated from
Schizosaccharomyces pombe (sp) consists of at least four
subunits, Pol3, Cdc1, Cdc27, and Cdm1. We have reconstituted the
four-subunit complex by simultaneously expressing these polypeptides in
baculovirus-infected insect cells. The properties of the purified
cloned spPol
were identical to the native spPol
isolated from
S. pombe cells. In addition, we also isolated a
three-subunit complex containing Pol3, Cdc1, and Cdm1. Both three- and
four-subunit complexes required replication factor C and proliferating
cell nuclear antigen for DNA replication. However, in the presence of
low levels of polymerase complexes, the three-subunit complex was less
efficient than the four-subunit complex in supporting DNA replication.
The inefficient synthesis of DNA by the three-subunit complex can be
remedied by the addition of Cdc27, the subunit missing in the
three-subunit complex. Gel filtration analysis demonstrated that the
three-subunit complex is a monomer of the heterotrimer (Pol3, Cdc1, and
Cdm1) and that the four-subunit complex is a dimer of the
heterotetramer (Pol3, Cdc1, Cdc27, and Cdm1), similar to the structure
of native spPol
. We have further shown that Cdc1 and Cdc27 interact
to form a heterodimeric complex. Gel filtration studies indicate that the structure of this complex is dimeric. These observations suggest that the Cdc27 subunit may play an important role contributing to the
dimerization of Pol
.
