Abstract

The current concept of eukaryotic DNA polymerases is considered, which are involved in nuclear DNA repair. The data are given on a new group of DNA polymerases that maintain the integrity of DNA structures without preliminary excision of damaged regions. A special attention is paid to specific features of the functioning of repair DNA polymerases in embryogenesis of the loach. A possible existence is discussed of the previously unknown pathway of DNA repair with participation of DNA polymerase δ as independent from the nuclear antigen of proliferating cells.
