About Polb

Summary

Enables DNA-directed DNA Polymerase activity; damaged DNA binding activity; and metal ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including DNA repair; response to gamma radiation; and response to hyperoxia. Located in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pancreatic Cancer. Orthologous to human POLB (DNA Polymerase beta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
