DNA polymerase delta (pol delta), which is comprised of at least two essential subunits, is an important enzyme involved in DNA replication and repair. We have cloned and characterized both the catalytic and small subunits of pol delta from rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Nipponbare). The open reading frames of OsPoldelta1 and delta2 encoded a predicted product of 1105 amino acid residues with a molecular weight of 124 kDa for OsPoldelta1, and of 429 residues with a molecular weight of 48 kDa for OsPoldelta2. Northern blotting analysis indicated that OsPoldelta1 and delta2 transcripts were expressed strongly in proliferating tissues such as shoot apical meristem. The expression patterns of both subunits in the organs were slightly different. Therefore, we analyzed the spatial distribution pattern of OsPoldelta1 transcripts by in situ hybridization. In the shoot apex, OsPoldelta1 mRNA was abundant in the shoot apical meristem. In the roots, the OsPoldelta1 transcript accumulated at high levels in the root apical meristem. In mature leaves, OsPoldelta1 was induced after UV irradiation, but OsPoldelta2 was not. The amounts of the OsPoldelta1 and delta2 mRNAs in the rice cells changed rapidly during cell proliferation. These results indicated that the levels of OsPoldelta expression are markedly correlated with cell proliferation, and that some of OsPoldelta might have special roles in the leaves.

D004258 DNA Polymerase III A DNA-dependent DNA polymerase characterized in E. coli and other lower organisms but may be present in higher organisms. Use also for a more complex form of DNA polymerase III designated as DNA polymerase III* or pol III* which is 15 times more active biologically than DNA polymerase I in the synthesis of DNA. This polymerase has both 3'-5' and 5'-3' exonuclease activities, is inhibited by sulfhydryl reagents, and has the same template-primer dependence as pol II.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
