This paper identifies separate metal-binding sites in Pol γ that regulate its DNA synthesis and strand displacement activities, revealing structural and biochemical mechanisms for mitochondrial DNA replication.

This study shows that Arabidopsis thaliana organellar DNA polymerases can bypass UV-induced [6-4] photoproducts, with activity dependent on specific amino acid insertions and Mn²⁺.

This study conjugates Hcp1 protein to P22 VLPs to create a vaccine platform, inducing antibody responses and enhancing macrophage phagocytosis in mice.
