DNA polymerase epsilon catalytic subunit is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the POLE gene.[5][6] It is the central catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase epsilon.

Clinical significance

POLE, along with POLD1, has in 2013 been associated with multiple adenoma.[7]

Interactions

POLE has been shown to interact with RAD17.[8]
