Somatic hypermutation of Ig genes is initiated by transcription-coupled cytidine deamination in Ig loci. Error-prone processing of the resultant DNA lesions is thought to cause extensive mutagenesis, but it is presently an enigma how and why error-prone rather than error-free repair pathways are recruited. During DNA replication, recruitment of error-prone translesion polymerases may be mediated by Rad6/Rad18-mediated ubiquitination of proliferating cell nuclear antigen, a major switchboard controlling the fidelity of DNA lesion bypass in eukaryotes. By inactivation of Rad18 in the DT40 B cell line, we show that the Rad6 pathway is involved in somatic hypermutation in these cells. Our findings imply that targeted recruitment of mutagenic polymerases by the Rad6 pathway contributes to the complex process of somatic hypermutation and provide a framework for more detailed mechanistic studies of the mutagenesis phase of secondary Ig diversification.
