== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/APEX1_HUMAN APEX1_HUMAN] Multifunctional protein that plays a central role in the cellular response to oxidative stress. The two major activities of APEX1 in DNA repair and redox regulation of transcriptional factors. Functions as a apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endodeoxyribonuclease in the DNA base excision repair (BER) pathway of DNA lesions induced by oxidative and alkylating agents. Initiates repair of AP sites in DNA by catalyzing hydrolytic incision of the phosphodiester backbone immediately adjacent to the damage, generating a single-strand break with 5'-deoxyribose phosphate and 3'-hydroxyl ends. Does also incise at AP sites in the DNA strand of DNA/RNA hybrids, single-stranded DNA regions of R-loop structures, and single-stranded RNA molecules. Has a 3'-5' exoribonuclease activity on mismatched deoxyribonucleotides at the 3' termini of nicked or gapped DNA molecules during short-patch BER. Possesses a DNA 3' phosphodiesterase activity capable of removing lesions (such as phosphoglycolate) blocking the 3' side of DNA strand breaks. May also play a role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression by participating in DNA demethylation. Acts as a loading factor for POLB onto non-incised AP sites in DNA and stimulates the 5'-terminal deoxyribose 5'-phosphate (dRp) excision activity of POLB. Plays a role in the protection from granzymes-mediated cellular repair leading to cell death. Also involved in the DNA cleavage step of class switch recombination (CSR). On the other hand, APEX1 also exerts reversible nuclear redox activity to regulate DNA binding affinity and transcriptional activity of transcriptional factors by controlling the redox status of their DNA-binding domain, such as the FOS/JUN AP-1 complex after exposure to IR. Involved in calcium-dependent down-regulation of parathyroid hormone (PTH) expression by binding to negative calcium response elements (nCaREs). Together with HNRNPL or the dimer XRCC5/XRCC6, associates with nCaRE, acting as an activator of transcriptional repression. Stimulates the YBX1-mediated MDR1 promoter activity, when acetylated at Lys-6 and Lys-7, leading to drug resistance. Acts also as an endoribonuclease involved in the control of single-stranded RNA metabolism. Plays a role in regulating MYC mRNA turnover by preferentially cleaving in between UA and CA dinucleotides of the MYC coding region determinant (CRD). In association with NMD1, plays a role in the rRNA quality control process during cell cycle progression. Associates, together with YBX1, on the MDR1 promoter. Together with NPM1, associates with rRNA.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
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-endonuclease and 3' to 5' exonuclease (exo) DNA cleavage functions. The lesion 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) can enter the genome as either a product of direct damage to the DNA, or through polymerase insertion at the 3'-end of a DNA strand during replication or repair. Importantly, 3'-8-oxoG impairs the ligation step of BER and therefore must be removed by the exo activity of a surrogate enzyme to prevent double stranded breaks and cell death. In the present study, we use X-ray crystallography to characterize the exo activity of APE1 on 3'-8-oxoG substrates. These structures support a unified APE1 exo mechanism that differs from its more canonical AP-endonuclease activity. In addition, through complementation of the structural data with enzyme kinetics and binding studies employing both wild-type and rationally designed APE1 mutants, we were able to identify and characterize unique protein: DNA contacts that specifically mediate 8-oxoG removal by APE1.
