Excision of Hypoxanthine from DNA Containing dIMP Residues by the Escherichia coli, Yeast, Rat, and Human Alkylpurine DNA Glycosylases

The deamination of adenine residues in DNA generates hypoxanthine, which is mutagenic since it gives rise to an A·T to G·C transition. Hypoxanthine is removed by hypoxanthine DNA glycosylase activity present in Escherichia coli and mammalian cells. Using polydeoxyribonucleotides or double-stranded s...
