Name | purine-specific mismatch base pair DNA N-glycosylase activity |
ID | GO_0000701 |
collection_id | Molecular function |
Description | 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. |
