DNA polymerase epsilon catalytic subunit is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the POLE gene.[3][4] It is the central catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase epsilon.

Clinical significance

POLE, along with POLD1, has recently been associated with multiple adenoma.[5]

Interactions

POLE has been shown to interact with RAD17.[6]
