Revised Manuscript Received August 1, 1986 abstract; Purified calf thymus DNA polymerases I and II each have an associated 3'to 5'exonuclease but otherwise resemble DNA polymerase a in size, biochemical kinetic parameters, and the presence of DNA primase [Crute, JJ, Wahl, A. F., & Bambara, R. A.(1986) Biochemistry 25, 26-36], Here we demonstrate a functional association of polymerase and exonuclease with each form. Furthermore, we show that the exonuclease can be dissociated from DNA polymerase I but does not appear to be removable from DNA polymerase II. Polymerases I, II, and a are equally sensitiveto the inhibitor aphidicolin, suggesting a similarity in active site structure. In comparison with DNA polymerase a and II, DNA polymerase I has intermediate sensitivity to 2-(pn-butylanilino)-2'-deoxyadenosine S'-triphosphate (BuAdATP) or N2-(pn-butylphenyl)-2'-deoxyguanosine S'-triphosphate (BuPdGTP). The activity of the DNA primase of the II enzyme is insensitive to BuAdATP whereas 1.0 µ of this inhibitor will decrease the activity of the DNA primase of the a and I enzymes approximately 50%. Two monoclonal antibodies that potently inhibit DNA polymerase a are only slightly inhibitory to DNA polymerase I and are ineffective at inhibitingDNA polymerase II. DNA polymerase II had been previously found to be nearly inactive on nuclease-treated calf thymus DNA, relative to its activity on homopolymeric DNA. We find that addition of purified calf histone proteins or spermidine can greatly enhance synthesis by this enzyme on activated calf DNA. have recently purified two forms of DNA polymerase (I and II) from calf thymususing ion-exchange and substrate affinity chromatography (Crute et al., 1986a). They are polymerases that contain a 3'to 5'exonuclease activity and differ from each other by chromatographic behavior and template preference. They have been designated-class polymerases on the basis of their similarities of the polymerase described earlier (Byrnes et al., 1976; Lee et al., 1984; Byrnes, 1984). Examination of the polymerases has revealed that they share many properties with calf DNA polymerase a, which we have purified using an immunoaffinity method (Wahl et al., 1984). The three enzymes, DNA polymerases a, I, and II, have similar molecular weight and axial ratio, have an associated DNA primase activity, display similar extents of processive synthesis, and are stimulated by ATP f The research was supported by National Institutes of Health Grants GM 24441 to RAB and CA28322 to EML and Cancer Center Core Grant 5-P30-CA 11198-16.
