| Abstract | In this study we examined whether the arrest of DNA polymerase alpha (pol alpha)-catalyzed DNA synthesis at template pause sites entails terminal nucleotide misincorporation. An approach was developed to identify the 3'-terminal nucleotide in nascent DNA chains that accumulate at pause sites. A radioactive 5'-end-labeled primer was annealed to a bacteriophage M13mp2 single-stranded DNA template and elongated by pol alpha. Individual DNA chains that were accumulated at pause sites were resolved by sequencing gel electrophoresis, isolated, and purified. These DNA chains were elongated by pol alpha by using four annealed synthetic DNA templates, each of which contained a different nucleotide at the position opposite the 3' terminus of the arrested chain. Owing to the high preference of pol alpha for matched-over-mismatched primer termini, only those templates that contain a nucleotide that is complementary to the 3' terminus of the isolated pause-site chain are copied. Electrophoresis of product DNA showed the extent of copying of each template and thus identified the 3'-terminal nucleotide of the pause-site chains. We found that product DNA chains terminate with a noncomplementary 3'-terminal nucleotide opposite pause sites within the sequence 3'-d(AAAA)-5' at positions 6272-6269 of the M13mp2 genome. pol alpha catalyzed misincorporation of dG or dA into the 3' terminus of nascent chains opposite two of the M13mp2 template dA residues. A similar analysis of a different pause site did not reveal significant misincorporation opposite template dC. These results suggest that some but not all sites at which pol alpha pauses may constitute loci of mutagenesis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
