POLK rabbit pAb

This gene encodes a member of the DNA polymerase type-Y family of proteins. The encoded protein is a specialized DNA polymerase that catalyzes translesion DNA synthesis, which allows DNA replication in the presence of DNA lesions. Human cell lines lacking a functional copy of this gene exhibit impaired genome integrity and enhanced susceptibility to oxidative damage. Mutations in this gene that impair enzyme activity may be associated with prostate cancer in human patients. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016],

Subcellular Location

Nucleus . Detected throughout the nucleus and at replication foci (PubMed:12414988) . Recruited to DNA damage sites in response to ultraviolet irradiation: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) -containing mRNAs accumulate in the vicinity of DNA damage sites and their presence is required to recruit POLK (PubMed:28297716) . .
