Structural basis of DNA synthesis opposite 8-oxoguanine by human PrimPol primase-polymerase

The human DNA primase and DNA polymerase PrimPol replicates through the major oxidative DNA damage lesion 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (oxoG) via translesion synthesis in a mostly error-free manner thus suppressing oxoG-induced mutagenesis in mitochondria and the nucleus. Here, the authors present cryst...
