TABLE 1.

Steady-state kinetic parameters for hpol η-catalyzed formation of mispairs in the presence of WRN

kcat Km,dNTP kcat/Km,dNTP ƒ (misinsertion frequency)a

dTTP:dG 23 ± 1 157 ± 25 0.15 36
WRN1–1092/E84A 27 ± 4 168 ± 54 0.16 12

a The frequencies of misinsertion were calculated relative to insertion of dCTP opposite dG using the ratio (kcat/Km, mispaired dNTP)/(kcat/Km,dCTP) × 103. The smaller the value of ƒ, the more accurate the polymerase.
