Catalytic ActivityDeoxynucleoside triphosphate + DNA(n) = diphosphate + DNA(n+1).
FunctionParticipates in DNA repair and in chromosomal DNA replication.
MiscellaneousIn eukaryotes there are five DNA polymerases: alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and epsilon which are responsible for different reactions of DNA synthesis.
SimilarityBelongs to the DNA polymerase epsilon subunit B family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationNucleus.
SubunitComponent of the epsilon DNA polymerase complex consisting of four subunits: POLE, POLE2, POLE3 and POLE4. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10801849}.
