Highlights? Y-family polymerases differ in fidelity and translesion synthesis specificity ? Polymerase fidelity and specificity are controlled by the interdomain linker ? Three amino acids in the interdomain linker are sufficient to determine conformation ? Differences in polymerase conformation determine differences in polymerase activity
