One of the principal issues about this protein compared to usual DNA polymerase (besides to the similarity with the Klenow fragment), is the lack of a correction mechanism (usually made by DNA PolIII in the [[User:Karl E. Zahn/RB69 DNA polymerase (GP43)|DNA Polymerase]]); this deficiency increases the number of errors, producing more mutations and therefore giving more facultative and resistance ability to the virus.
