We have previously purified and characterized wheat germ DNA polymerases A and B. To determine the role played by DNA polymerases A and B in DNA replication, we have measured the level of their activities during wheat embryo germination. The level of cellular proteins known to be associated with DNA synthesis such as PCNA and DNA primase were also investigated. The activity of DNA polymerase A gradually increased reaching a maximal level at 12 h after germination. Three days later, only a residual activity was detected. DNA polymerase B showed the same pattern during germination with very similar changes in activity. Our results indicate a striking correlation between maximal activities of DNA polymerase A, DNA polymerase B and optimal levels of DNA synthesis. These results support a replicative role of these enzymes. The activity of wheat DNA primase that copurifies with DNA polymerase A also increases during wheat germination. Taking together all its properties, and in spite of its behaviour with some inhibitors. DNA polymerase A may be considered as the plant counterpart of animal DNA polymerase alpha. Concerning DNA polymerase B we have previously shown that PCNA stimulates its processivity. Besides studying the changes of DNA polymerases A and B and DNA primase we have also studied changes in PCNA during germination. We show that PCNA is present in wheat embryos at a constant relatively high level during the first 24 h of germination. After 48 h, the absence of PCNA is concomitant with an important decrease in DNA polymerase B activity. In this report we confirm the behaviour of DNA polymerase B as a delta-like activity.
