DNA polymerase subunit gamma is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the POLG gene.[1]

Function

POLG is a gene that codes for the catalytic subunit of the mitochondrial DNA polymerase, called DNA polymerase gamma.[2] The human POLG cDNA and gene were cloned and mapped to chromosome band 15q25.[3] In eukaryotic cells, the mitochondrial DNA is replicated by DNA polymerase gamma, a trimeric protein complex composed of a catalytic subunit of 140 kDa encoded by the POLG gene and a dimeric accessory subunit of 55 kDa encoded by the POLG2 gene.[4] The catalytic subunit contains three enzymatic activities, a DNA polymerase activity, a 3’-5’ exonuclease activity that proofreads misincorporated nucleotides, and a 5’-dRP lyase activity required for base excision repair.

Clinical significance

Mutations in the POLG gene are associated with several mitochondrial diseases, including Alpers' disease, ataxia-neuropathy disorders, and dominant and recessive forms of progressive external ophthalmoplegia. A list of all published mutations in the POLG coding region and their associated disease can be found at the Human DNA Polymerase Gamma Mutation Database.
