Tóm tắt

DNA polymerase β (Polβ) is a key enzyme in DNA base excision repair (BER). Despite extensive research, several microscopic rate constants within the kinetic mechanism of nucleotide incorporation into single-nucleotide gapped DNA by Polβ have not been determined and the identity of the rate-limiting step remains controversial. Here, we employed pre-steady-state kinetic methods and determined the rate constants for correct dNTP association (
