Comments:
-!- FUNCTION: Involved in base excision repair of DNA damaged by
oxidation or by mutagenic agents. Acts as DNA glycosylase that
recognizes and removes damaged bases. Has a preference for
oxidized pyrimidines, such as thymine glycol, 5,6-dihydrouracyl
and 5,6-dihydrothymine. Has AP (apurinic/apyrimidinic) lyase
activity and introduces nicks in the DNA strand. Cleaves the DNA
backbone by beta-delta elimination to generate a single-strand
break at the site of the removed base with both 3'- and 5'-
phosphates (By similarity).
-!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Removes damaged bases from DNA, leaving an
abasic site.
-!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: The C-O-P bond 3' to the apurinic or
apyrimidinic site in DNA is broken by a beta-elimination reaction,
leaving a 3'-terminal unsaturated sugar and a product with a
terminal 5'-phosphate.
-!- COFACTOR: Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit (By similarity).
-!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the FPG family.
-!- SIMILARITY: Contains 1 FPG-type zinc finger.
