CloningDPB3, the gene encoding the third subunit of DNA polymerase II ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae

Abstract: DNA polymerase II purified from Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains polypeptides with apparent molecular masses of greater than 200, 80, 34, 30 and 29 kDa, the two largest of which (subunits A and B) are encoded by the essential genes POL2 and DPB2. By probing a lambda gt11 expression library of yeast DNA with antiserum against DNA polymerase II, we isolated a single gene, DPB3, that encodes both the 34- and 30-kDa polypeptides (subunit C and C'). The nucleotide sequence of DPB3 contained an open reading frame e… Show more

“…Based on the observations that budding yeast DPB2 is required for chromosomal DNA replication (Araki et al, 1991a), we anticipated that S. pombe cells lacking dpb2 ϩ would also be defective for DNA synthesis. To test this possibility, we first analyzed DNA content in ⌬dpb2 germinating spores by FACS.…”

“…Deletion of each of the three smaller subunits from the S. cerevisiae genome results in different phenotypes. Only Dpb2 is essential for viability and normal S phase progression (Araki et al, 1991a). Although both Dpb3 and Dpb4 are not required for cell viability, deletion of the genes encoding these proteins does result in partial defects in DNA replication (Araki et al, 1991b;Ohya et al, 2000).…”

“…This lack of complementation may be due to the complexity of Pole. Firstly, S. cerevisiae PolII consists of at least four polypeptide subunits , the 256-kDa Pol2 catalytic subunit (Morrison et al 1990), the second largest subunit (80 kDa) encoded by DPB2 (Araki et al 1991a), the third subunit (34 and 31 kDa) encoded by DPB3 (Araki et al 1991b), and the fourth subunit (29 kDa) encoded by DPB4 (our unpublished results), respectively. The subunit structure of S. pombe Pole is not known at the present time.…”
