Response of murine DNA polymerases C and N to partial hepatectomy.
Two DNA polymerases, designated C and N have been characterized in extracts of murine spleen and liver (Evans et al. 1974). The effect of partial hepatectomy on the activity levels of these two enzymes was studied by gel filtration of crude extracts on Sephadex G-200. Both enzymes were observed to respond to the proliferation stimulus. Polymerase N activity reached maximum levels between 30 and 48 hours after hepatectomy. Polymerase C response was delayed until 30 hours and reached maximum values at 48-72 hours.
