(Submitter supplied) To investigate nuclear DNA replication enzymology in vivo, we have studied Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains containing a pol2-16 mutation that inactivates the catalytic activities of DNA polymerase δ (Pol δ). Although pol2-16 mutants survive, their spore colonies are very tiny, with increased doubling time, larger than normal cells, aberrant nuclei, and rapid suppressor mutation accumulation. These phenotypes reveal a severe growth defect that is distinct from that of strains that lack Pol δ proofreading (pol2-4), consistent with the idea that Pol δ is the major leading strand replicase. more...
