LigD is a multifunctional ligase/polymerase/nuclease (3'-phosphoesterase) found in bacterial non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) DNA repair systems.[1] It is much more error-prone than the more complex eukaryotic system of NHEJ, which uses multiple enzymes to fill its role.[2] The polymerase preferentially use rNTPs (RNA nucleotides), possibly advantageous in dormant cells.[3]

The actual architecture of LigD is variable.

  • The LigD homolog in Bacillus subtilis does not have the nuclease domain.
  • LigD with its ligase domain artificially removed can perform its function (with loss of fidelity) with a separate LigC acting as the ligase.[2]
  • The LigD homolog in the archaeon Methanocella paludicola is broken into three single-domain proteins sharing an operon.[4]
