Processing of oxidatively damaged DNA dirty ends by APE1
2021-11-29
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Reactive oxygen species attack the structure of DNA, thus altering its base-pairing properties. Consequently, oxidative stress-associated DNA lesions are a major source of the mutation load that gives rise to cancer and other diseases. Base excision repair (BER) is the pathway primarily tasked with repairing DNA base damage, with apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease (APE1) having both AP-endonucle...
