The difference between the polymerases used in translesion synthesis repair and general DNA replication is
A) the polymerase used in translesion synthesis has a pocket that can accommodate the lesions while DNA pol III's pocket cannot.
B) there is no real difference between the polymerases except that the translesional polymerase is not part of the replication complex.
C) the polymerase used in translesion synthesis has a pocket that cannot accommodate the lesions, that is part of the mechanism by which the lesions are removed.
D) the polymerase used to remove the lesion has a modified nucleotide binding pocket allowing for mispairing of nucleotides.
