XENOPUS SMUG1, AN ANTI-MUTATOR URACIL-DNA GLYCOSYLASE
OverviewOverview
Cytosine deamination is a major promutagenic process, generating G:U, mismatches that can cause transition mutations if not repaired. Uracil is, also introduced into DNA via nonmutagenic incorporation of dUTP during, replication. In bacteria, uracil is excised by uracil-DNA glycosylases, (UDG) related to E. coli UNG, and UNG homologs are found in mammals and, viruses. Ung knockout mice display no increase in mutation frequency due, to a second UDG activity, SMUG1, which is specialized for antimutational, uracil excision in mammalian cells. Remarkably, SMUG1 also excises the, oxidation-damage product 5-hydroxymethyluracil (HmU), but like UNG is, inactive against thymine (5-methyluracil), a chemical substructure of HmU., We have solved the crystal structure of SMUG1 complexed with DNA and, ...
