Replication Past the 𝛾-Radiation-Induced Guanine-Thymine Cross-Link G[8,5-Me]T by Human and Yeast DNA Polymerase 𝜂

𝛾-Radiation-induced intrastrand guanine-thymine cross-link, G[8,5-Me]T, hinders replication in vitro and is mutagenic in mammalian cells. Herein we report in vitro translesion synthesis of G[8,5-Me]T by human and yeast DNA polymerase 𝜂 (hPol 𝜂 and yPol 𝜂). dAMP misincorporation opposite the cross-li...
