REV1 REV1 DNA directed polymerase

Gene ID: 51455, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: REV1L; AIBP80

Summary

This gene encodes a protein with similarity to the S. cerevisiae mutagenesis protein Rev1. The Rev1 proteins contain a BRCT domain, which is important in protein-protein interactions. A suggested role for the human Rev1-like protein is as a scaffold that recruits DNA polymerases involved in translesion synthesis (TLS) of damaged DNA. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]
