Description : |
G/U mismatch-specific DNA glycosylase, xanthine DNA glycosylase, also known as mug, belongs to the TDG/mug DNA glycosylase family. It has been proposed that the Mug protein excises 3, N4-ethenocytosine and removes the uracil base from mismatches in the order of U:G>U:A, although the biological role remains unclear. The enzyme Uracil-N-Glycosylase removes uracil from the DNA leaving an AP site. It is capable of hydrolyzing the carbon-nitrogen bond between the sugar-phosphate backbone of the DNA and the mispaired base. The complementary strand guanine functions in substrate recognition. Recombinant E.coli mug protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques. |
