High-Resolution Crystal Structures Reveal Plasticity in the Metal Binding Site of Apurinic/Apyrimidinic Endonuclease I

Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease I (APE1) is an essential base excision repair enzyme that catalyzes a Mg2+-dependent reaction in which the phosphodiester backbone is cleaved 5′ of an abasic site in duplex DNA. This reaction has been proposed to involve either one or two metal ions bound to the ac...
