General annotation (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, formamidopyrimidine (Fapy) and 5-hydroxyuracil. Has marginal activity towards 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. Has DNA glycosylase/lyase activity towards mismatched uracil and thymine, in particular in U:C and T:C mismatches. Ref.1 Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.9

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.

Subcellular location

Nucleus.

Tissue specificity

Ubiquitous. Ref.8

Induction

Up-regulated during S-phase. Ref.8

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the FPG family.

RNA editing

Edited at position 242.
The edited form removes thymine glycol from duplex DNA 30 times more slowly than the form encoded in the genome, whereas editing enhances repair of the guanidinohydantoin lesion by NEIL1. The recoding site is a preferred editing site for the RNA editing adenosine deaminase ADAR1. Ref.10

Sequence caution

The sequence AK128372 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous CDS prediction.
