    This study used a linear free energy relationship analysis, in the form of a Bronsted plot of log( kpol) versus p Ka4, for Y-family error-prone DNA polymerase eta and X-family DNA polymerases gamma and beta to determine the extent to which different electrostatic active site environments alter kpol values. The apparent chemical rate constant ( kpol) is the rate-determining step for the three pols.

    In addition to the two Mg(2+) ions aligning the active site of DNA polymerase eta, experiments suggest that a third Mg(2+) ion could play an essential catalytic role. The simulations with three metal ions in the active site suggest that the third metal ion may play a catalytic role through electrostatic interactions with the leaving group.

    Rad18, independently of its ubiquitin ligase activity, promotes DNA polymerase eta SUMOylation by facilitating its interaction with its SUMO ligase PIAS1 and is required for DNA polymerase eta function at difficult to replicate loci.
