EC 3.2.2.29 Details

show Brenda entry

EC number

3.2.2.29

Accepted name

thymine-DNA glycosylase

Reaction

Hydrolyses mismatched double-stranded DNA and polynucleotides, releasing free thymine.

Other name(s)

mismatch-specific thymine-DNA glycosylase, mismatch-specific thymine-DNA N-glycosylase, hTDG, hsTDG, TDG, thymine DNA glycosylase, G/T glycosylase, uracil/thymine DNA glycosylase, T:G mismatch-specific thymidine-DNA glycosylase, G:T mismatch-specific thymine DNA-glycosylase

Systematic name

thymine-DNA deoxyribohydrolase (thymine-releasing)

Comment

Thymine-DNA glycosylase is part of the DNA-repair machinery. Thymine removal is fastest when it is from a G/T mismatch with a 5′-flanking C/G pair. The glycosylase removes uracil from G/U, C/U, and T/U base pairs faster than it removes thymine from G/T [3].
