Increased and imbalanced dNTP pools symmetrically promote both leading and lagging strand replication infidelity.

The fidelity of DNA replication requires an appropriate balance of dNTPs, yet the nascent leading and lagging strands of the nuclear genome are primarily synthesized by replicases that differ in subunit composition, protein partnerships and biochemical properties, including fidelity. These facts pos...
