Polymerase (DNA directed) nu is a
protein in humans that is encoded by the POLN
gene.[5] It is a
family ADNA polymerase,[6] considered to be the least effective of the polymerase enzymes.[7] However, DNA polymerase nu plays an active role in
homology repair during cellular responses to crosslinks, fulfilling its role in a complex with
helicase.[7]
