The MPXV DNA polymerase holoenzyme, consisting of F8, A22, and E4, is vital for replicating the viral genome and represents a crucial target for the development of antiviral drugs. However, the assembly and working mechanism for the DNA polymerase holoenzyme of MPXV remains elusive. Here, we present the cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of the DNA polymerase holoenzyme at an overall resolution of 3.5 Å. Unexpectedly, the holoenzyme is assembled as a dimer of heterotrimers, of which the extra interface between the thumb domain of F8 and A22 shows a clash between A22 and substrate DNA, suggesting an autoinhibition state. Addition of exogenous double-stranded DNA shifts the hexamer into trimer exposing DNA binding sites, potentially representing a more active state. Our findings provide crucial steps toward developing targeted antiviral therapies for MPXV and related viruses.
