Structure of human MUTYH and functional profiling of cancer-associated variants reveal an allosteric network between its [4Fe-4S] cluster cofactor and active site required for DNA repair

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> MUTYH is a clinically important DNA glycosylase that thwarts mutations by initiating base-excision repair at 8-oxoguanine (OG):A lesions. The roles for its [4Fe-4S] cofactor in DNA repair remain enigmatic. Functional profiling of cancer-associated variants near the [4Fe-4S] cofactor revealed that most variations abrogate both retention of the cofactor and enzyme activity. Surprisingly, R241Q and...
