DNA contains information that must be safeguarded, but also accessed for transcription and replication. To perform replication, eukaryotic cells use the B-family DNA polymerase enzymes Polδ and Polɛ, which are optimized for accuracy, speed, and processivity. The molecular basis of these high-performance characteristics causes these replicative polymerases to fail at sites of DNA damage (lesions), which would lead to genomic instability and cell death. To avoid this, cells possess additional DNA polymerases such as the Y-family of polymerases and the B-family member Polζ that can replicate over sites of DNA damage in a process called translesion synthesis (TLS). While able to replicate over DNA lesions, the TLS polymerases exhibit low-fidelity on undamaged DNA and, consequently, must be prevented from replicating DNA under normal circumstances and recruited only when necessary. The replicative bypass of most types of DNA lesions requires the consecutive action of these specialized TLS polymerases assembled into a dynamic multiprotein complex called the Rev1/Polζ mutasome. To this end, posttranslational modifications and a network of protein-protein interactions mediated by accessory domains/subunits of the TLS polymerases control the assembly and rearrangements of the Rev1/Polζ mutasome and recruitment of TLS proteins to sites of DNA damage. This chapter focuses on the structures and interactions that control these processes underlying the function of the Rev1/Polζ mutasome, as well as the development of small molecule inhibitors of the Rev1/Polζ-dependent TLS holding promise as a potential anticancer therapy.
