a

Misinsertion frequency, calculated by dividing kcat/Kmfor each dNTP incorporation by the kcat/Km for dCTP incorporation opposite G.

b

Relative efficiency, calculated by dividing kcat/Km of each pol κ(1–526) for dCTP incorporation opposite G by kcat/Km of wild type pol κ(1–526) for dCTP incorporation opposite undamaged G.
