FAM72A antagonizes UNG2 to promote mutagenic uracil repair during antibody maturation
2020-12-23
Abstract excerpt
Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) catalyzes the deamination of deoxycytidines within Immunoglobulin ( Ig ) genes to induce somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR) 1,2 . AID-induced deoxyuracils within Ig loci are recognized and processed by subverted base excision and mismatch repair pathways that ensure a mutagenic outcome in B lymphocytes 3–8 . However, it is unclear why D...
