Polymerase (DNA directed) nu is a protein in humans that is encoded by the POLN gene.[3] It is a family A DNA polymerase,[4] considered to be the least effective of the polymerase enzymes.[5] However, DNA polymerase nu plays an active role in homology repair during cellular responses to crosslinks, fulfilling its role in a complex with helicase.[5]
