== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/DPOLX_ASFB7 DPOLX_ASFB7] Error-prone polymerase lacking a proofreading 3'-5' exonuclease which plays a role in viral DNA repair. Specifically binds intermediates in the single-nucleotide base-excision repair process. Also catalyzes DNA polymerization with low nucleotide-insertion fidelity. Together with the viral DNA ligase, fills the single nucleotide gaps generated by the AP endonuclease.<ref>PMID:12595253</ref> <ref>PMID:11685239</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
DNAzymes are a group of DNA molecules that can catalyze various chemical reactions. Owing to their great application potentials, DNAzymes have received significant attention. However, due to their intrinsic difficulties in crystallization and structural determination, only very limited structural information of DNAzymes is available to date. Using co-crystallization with the African Swine Fever Virus Polymerase X (AsfvPolX) protein, we have recently solved a complex structure of the 8-17 DNAzyme, which represents the first structure of the catalytically active RNA-cleaving DNAzyme. In this chapter, we describe the detailed protocols including gene construction, AsfvPolX expression and purification, crystallization, structure determination, and in vitro cleavage assay. While the specific methods described herein were originally designed for the 8-17 DNAzyme, they can also be utilized to solve other DNAzyme structures.
