breaks and gaps on the sister chromatids. These lesions may be
processed by either homologous recombination (HR) repair or translesion DNA synthesis (TLS). Vertebrate Pol

belongs to the DNA polymerase Y
family, as do most TLS polymerases. However, the role for Pol
in
vertebrate cells is unclear because of the lack of reverse genetic
studies. Here, we generated cells deficient in Pol
(pol
cells) from the chicken B lymphocyte line DT40.
Although purified Pol
is unable to bypass ultraviolet (UV) damage,
pol
cells exhibited increased UV sensitivity, and the
phenotype was suppressed by expression of human and chicken Pol
,
suggesting that Pol
is involved in TLS of UV photoproduct. Defects
in both Pol
and Rad18, which regulates TLS in yeast, in DT40 showed
an additive effect on UV sensitivity. Interestingly, the level of
sister chromatid exchange, which reflects HR-mediated repair, was
elevated in normally cycling pol
cells. This implies
functional redundancy between HR and Pol
in maintaining chromosomal
DNA. In conclusion, vertebrate Pol
is involved in
Rad18-independent TLS of UV damage and plays a role in maintaining
genomic stability.
