Term Information

Accession
GO:0003905
Name
alkylbase DNA N-glycosylase activity
Ontology
molecular_function
Synonyms
DNA-3-methyladenine glycosidase II activity, alkylbase DNA glycosidase activity, 3-methyladenine DNA glycosylase II, AlkA, DNA glycosidase II activity, DNA-3-methyladenine glycosylase II, deoxyribonucleate 3-methyladenine glycosidase II, alkylated-DNA glycohydrolase (releasing methyladenine and methylguanine)
Alternate IDs
GO:0004036
Definition
Catalysis of the reaction: DNA with alkylated base + H2O = DNA with abasic site + alkylated base. This reaction is the hydrolysis of DNA by cleavage of the N-C1' glycosidic bond between the target damaged DNA base and the deoxyribose sugar to remove an alkylated base, leaving an apyrimidinic or apurinic site.
