Abstract excerpt
Oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1) is a major base excision repair protein responsible for excision of the mutagenic 8-oxoguanosine (8-oxoG) lesions from the genome. Despite OGG1's importance, the moderate phenotype of Ogg1-null (Ogg1(-/-)) mice is not well understood. This study addresses a mechanism by which Ogg1(-/-) cells limit accumulation of 8-oxoG in their genome. Our data reveal that a subset of Ogg1(-/-)...
