additional information Micrococcus luteus only nicking of UV-irradiated DNA, creating phospho diester bond breaks 5' with respect to pyrimidine dimers, protein containing the glycosylase activity also contains the apyrimidinic endonuclease activity, multifunctional enzyme, 2 distinct domains in a single enzyme molecule possess both pyrimidine dimer-DNA glycosylase, and AP endonuclease activity, first the glycosylase cleaves glycosylic bond of one of the pyrimidine residues of a dimer to yield an AP site, then AP endonuclease hydrolyzes the phospho diester bond near the AP site, prefers duplex DNA to single-stranded ?
