Evidence for interplay among yeast replicative DNA polymerases alpha, delta and epsilon from studies of exonuclease and polymerase active site mutations

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>DNA polymerase ε (Pol ε) is essential for S-phase replication, DNA damage repair and checkpoint control in yeast. A <it>pol2-Y831A </it>mutation leading to a tyrosine to alanine change in the Pol ε active site does not ca...
