Journal ArticleDOI

Structural basis for removal of adenine mispaired with 8-oxoguanine by MutY adenine DNA glycosylase

TL;DR: The use of disulphide crosslinking is reported to obtain high-resolution crystal structures of MutY–DNA lesion-recognition complexes that reveal the basis for recognizing both lesions in the A·oxoG pair and for catalysing removal of the adenine base.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA glycosylase recognition and catalysis

TL;DR: The basis of the recognition of the oxidative lesion 8-oxoguanine by two structurally unrelated DNA glycosylases is now understood and has been revealed to involve surprisingly similar strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of a trapped endonuclease III-DNA covalent intermediate.

TL;DR: The crystal structure of a trapped intermediate that represents EndoIII frozen in the act of repairing DNA is determined and suggests a rationale for the frequent occurrence in certain human cancers of a specific mutation in the related DNA repair protein MYH.
