Synonyms
A/G-specific adenine DNA glycosylase activity
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
Catalysis of the removal of purines present in mismatches, especially opposite oxidized purines, by cleaving the N-C1' glycosidic bond between the target damaged DNA base and the deoxyribose sugar. The reaction releases a free base and leaves an apurinic (AP) site. Source: PMID:9224623, GOC:elh
