Uracil–DNA glycosylase UNG1 isoform variant supports class switch recombination and repairs nuclear genomic uracil
25 Feb 2019
Abstract excerpt
UNG is the major uracil-DNA glycosylase in mammalian cells and is involved in both error-free base excision repair of genomic uracil and mutagenic uracil-processing at the antibody genes. However, the regulation of UNG in these different processes is currently not well understood. The UNG gene encodes two isoforms, UNG1 and UNG2, each possessing unique N-termini that mediate translocation to the mitochondria and...
