== Function ==
 +
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/DPOLQ_HUMAN DPOLQ_HUMAN] Has a DNA polymerase activity on nicked double-stranded DNA and on a singly primed DNA template. The enzyme activity is resistant to aphidicolin, and inhibited by dideoxynucleotides. Exhibites a single-stranded DNA-dependent ATPase activity. Could be involved in the repair of interstrand cross-links.<ref>PMID:14576298</ref>

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) present a critical threat to genomic integrity, often precipitating genomic instability and oncogenesis. Repair of DSBs predominantly occurs through homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). In HR-deficient cells, DNA polymerase theta (Poltheta) becomes critical for DSB repair via microhomology-mediated end joining (MMEJ), also termed theta-mediated end joining (TMEJ). Thus, Poltheta is synthetically lethal with BRCA1/2 and other HR factors, underscoring its potential as a therapeutic target in HR-deficient cancers. However, the molecular mechanisms governing Poltheta-mediated MMEJ remain poorly understood. Here we present a series of cryo-electron microscopy structures of the Poltheta helicase domain (Poltheta-hel) in complex with DNA containing different 3'-ssDNA overhangs. The structures reveal the sequential conformations adopted by Poltheta-hel during the critical phases of DNA binding, microhomology searching, and microhomology annealing. The stepwise conformational changes within the Poltheta-hel subdomains and its functional dimeric state are pivotal for aligning the 3'-ssDNA overhangs, facilitating the microhomology search and subsequent annealing necessary for DSB repair via MMEJ. Our findings illustrate the essential molecular switches within Poltheta-hel that orchestrate the MMEJ process in DSB repair, laying the groundwork for the development of targeted therapies against the Poltheta-hel.
