DiseaseDisease

[UNG_HUMAN] Defects in UNG are a cause of immunodeficiency with hyper-IgM type 5 (HIGM5) [MIM:608106]. A rare immunodeficiency syndrome characterized by normal or elevated serum IgM levels with absence of IgG, IgA, and IgE. It results in a profound susceptibility to bacterial infections.[1][2]

FunctionFunction

[UNG_HUMAN] Excises uracil residues from the DNA which can arise as a result of misincorporation of dUMP residues by DNA polymerase or due to deamination of cytosine.
