摘要: Establishment of cohesion between sister chromatids is coupled to replication fork passage through an unknown mechanism. Here we report that TRF4 , evolutionarily conserved gene necessary for chromosome segregation, encodes a DNA polymerase with β-polymerase–like properties. A double mutant in the redundant homologs, and TRF5 unable complete S phase, whereas trf4 single completes presumably defective phase results failure replicated chromatids. This suggests TRF s are key link coordination chromatid cohesion. Trf4 Trf5 represent fourth class essential nuclear polymerases (designated kappa) Saccharomyces cerevisiae probably all eukaryotes.
