Summary
Predicted to enable DNA-directed DNA polymerase activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to UV; error-prone translesion synthesis; and nucleotide-excision repair, DNA gap filling. Predicted to act upstream of or within DNA repair. Predicted to be located in nuclear body. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Predicted to colocalize with site of DNA damage. Orthologous to human POLK (DNA polymerase kappa). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
