>cd00424 Pol_Y Y-family of DNA polymerases. Pol_Y's can transverse replication-blocking DNA lesions, such as cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers resulting from UV damage, at the cost of an elevated error rate. The Y-family has no 3'-5' exonuclease activity. In addition to possessing a topology akin to a right hand, with "thumb", "fingers" and "palm" motifs, like polymerases from the A-, B-, C- and X-families, the Y-family has a unique "little finger" motif. Expression of Y-family polymerases is often induced by DNA damage. These polymerases are phylogenetically unrelated to classical DNA polymerases.
