In the nuclear compartment of yeast, NuB4 core complex consists of three proteins, Hat1, Hat2, and Hif1, and interacts with a number of other factors. In particular, it was shown that NuB4 complex physically interacts with Hsm3p. Early we demonstrated that the gene
participates in the control of replicative and reparative spontaneous mutagenesis, and that
mutants increase the frequency of mutations induced by different mutagens. It was previously believed that the
gene controlled only some minor repair processes in the cell, but later it was suggested that it had a chaperone function with its participation in proteasome assembly. In this work, we analyzed the properties of three
,
, and
mutants. The results obtained showed that the Hsm3 protein may be a functional subunit of NuB4 complex. It has been shown that
- and
-dependent UV-induced mutagenesis is completely suppressed by inactivation of the Polη polymerase. We showed a significant role of Polη for
-dependent mutagenesis at non-bipyrimidine sites (NBP sites). The efficiency of expression of
(RiboNucleotid Reducase) genes after UV irradiation in
and
mutants was several times lower than in wild-type cells. Thus, we have presented evidence that significant increase in the dNTP levels suppress
- and
-dependent mutagenesis and Polη is responsible for
- and
-dependent mutagenesis.
