General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function the enzyme plays key roles in sustaining genome integrity because of its ability to selectively remove thymine from G/T mismatches through the DNA base excision repair pathway. The enzyme is actively involved in epigenetic regulation by participating in the DNA 5-methylcytosine demethylation processes Homo sapiens
