DNA polymerase iota alleviates replication stress-induced genome instability during mitosis


ABSTRACT: DNA polymerase iota (Pol ι) is a Y-family lesion bypass polymerases, characterized by its remarkably low fidelity. While Pol ι is ubiquitously expressed in nearly all cell types, its function remains largely undefined. Previous studies in cellular and mouse models deficient in Pol ι have revealed no discernible phenotype. In this report, we show that Pol ι plays an important role in mitotic DNA synthesis. Cells lacking Pol ι exhibit heightened vulnerability to replication stress, increased formation of micronuclei, and accumulation of chromosomal breaks. The protein level of Pol ι is tightly regulated and restricted to G2/M phase cells via CRL7/FBXW11-mediated proteasomal degradation. The absence of Pol ι during S phase ensures that its error-prone DNA synthesis activity is excluded from interfering with normal DNA replication. These findings suggest that Pol ι function is critical in resolving DNA damage-induced replication stress prior to the completion of mitosis.
