Abstract excerpt
DNA ligase I (LIG1) completes the base excision repair (BER) pathway at the last nick-sealing step after DNA polymerase (pol) β gap-filling DNA synthesis. However, the mechanism by which LIG1 fidelity mediates the faithful substrate-product channeling and ligation of repair intermediates at the final steps of the BER pathway remains unclear. We previously reported that pol β 8-oxo-2'-deoxyribonucleoside...
