catalytic activity:Deoxynucleoside triphosphate + DNA(n) = diphosphate + DNA(n+1).,cofactor:Manganese.,function:Repair polymerase. Involved in base excision repair (BER) responsible for repair of lesions that give rise to abasic (AP) sites in DNA. Has both DNA polymerase and terminal transferase activities. Has a 5'-deoxyribose-5-phosphate lyase (dRP lyase) activity.,PTM:Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.,similarity:Belongs to the DNA polymerase type-X family.,similarity:Contains 1 BRCT domain.,subunit:Binds PCNA.,tissue specificity:Expressed in a number of tissues. Abundant in testis.,
