(a) Alignment of the amino acid sequences of ApPol 𝜂 and HsPol 𝜂 (NP_006493.1). Identical and similar residues between the two enzymes are indicated in black and grey, respectively. (b) Phylogenetic analysis of TLS polymerases. A phylogenetic tree was constructed by the UPGMA method, based on the amino acid sequences of the ApPol 𝜂 and other Y- and B-family DNA polymerases.
