POLL DNA polymerase lambda

Gene ID: 27343, updated on 2-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: BETAN; POLKAPPA

Summary

This gene encodes a DNA polymerase. DNA polymerases catalyze DNA-template-directed extension of the 3'-end of a DNA strand. This particular polymerase, which is a member of the X family of DNA polymerases, likely plays a role in non-homologous end joining and other DNA repair processes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
