UniProt functional annotation for Q920Q2

UniProt code: Q920Q2.

Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Mus; Mus.
 
Function: Deoxycytidyl transferase involved in DNA repair. Transfers a dCMP residue from dCTP to the 3'-end of a DNA primer in a template- dependent reaction. May assist in the first step in the bypass of abasic lesions by the insertion of a nucleotide opposite the lesion. Required for normal induction of mutations by physical and chemical agents. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11711549}.
 
Subunit: Interacts with FAAP20 (By similarity). Monomer. Interacts with the DNA polymerase zeta which is composed of REV3L and MAD2L2; the interaction with MAD2L2 is direct and requires that REV3L is in its closed conformation. Interacts with POLH, POLI and POLK. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11711549, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14657033}.
Subcellular location: Nucleus {ECO:0000305}.
Tissue specificity: Ubiquitous. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11711549}.
Domain: The C-terminal domain is necessary for protein interactions.
Similarity: Belongs to the DNA polymerase type-Y family. {ECO:0000305}.
