DNA Polymerase IV is a polymerase present only in Escherichia coli (E. Coli), and is involved in non-targeted mutagenesis. PolIV is a Family Y polymerase, expressed by the dinB gene. Its activity is turned on when polymerases at the replication fork become stalled and exhibit SOS induction. It works to create a checkpoint and stop replication, to repair lesions in the DNA. Additionally, Pol IV acts as a trans-lesion synthesizer at a stalled replication fork. | DNA Polymerase IV is a polymerase present only in Escherichia coli (E.
