General annotation (Comments)

Function

Involved in base excision repair of DNA damaged by oxidation or by mutagenic agents. Has DNA glycosylase activity towards 5-hydroxyuracil and other oxidized derivatives of cytosine with a preference for mismatched double stranded DNA (DNA bubbles). Has low or no DNA glycosylase activity towards thymine glycol, 2-hydroxyadenine, hypoxanthine and 8-oxoguanine. 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.

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.

Enzyme regulation

Acetylation of Lys-50 leads to loss of DNA nicking activity By similarity.

Subunit structure

Binds EP300 By similarity.

Subcellular location

Nucleus By similarity.

Domain

The zinc-finger domain is important for DNA binding.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the FPG family.

Contains 1 FPG-type zinc finger.
