Abstract excerpt
Oxidized pyrimidines are mainly repaired by base excision repair, which is initiated by damage-specific DNA glycosylases. NEIL1, the mammalian homolog of Escherichia coli endonuclease VIII and a major DNA glycosylase, initiates repair of oxidized pyrimidines. Here, we investigated the expression of two putative variant mouse NEIL1 (mNEIL1) mRNAs--variant 1 ("Neil1 protein" mRNA; BC043297 in the NCBI database) and...
