additional information | association of APE1 with undamaged DNA reduces effective concentration of the enzyme and subsequently decreases APE1-catalyzed cleavage rates on long DNA substrates. APE1 oligomers on DNA induce helix distortions thereby enhancing molecular recognition of DNA lesions by DNA glycosylases via a conformational proofreading/selection mechanism. Thus, APE1-mediated structural deformations of the DNA helix stabilize the enzyme-substrate complex and promote dissociation of human DNA glycosylases from the AP site with a subsequent increase in their turnover rate. APE1 shows DNA length dependence with preferential repair of short DNA duplexes. Electron microscopic analysis of DNA complexes with the APE1 protein | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | the base excision repair (BER) pathway consists of sequential action of DNA glycosylase and apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease necessary to remove a damaged base and generate a single-strand break in duplex DNA. Human multifunctional AP endonuclease 1 (APE1) plays essential roles in BER by acting downstream of DNA glycosylases to incise a DNA duplex at AP sites and remove 3'-blocking sugar moieties at DNA strand breaks. Human apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease, APE1, stimulates DNA glycosylases, e.g. human 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase (OGG1), by increasing their turnover rate on duplex DNA substrates, overview. The redox domain of APE1 is necessary for the active mode of stimulation of DNA glycosylases (e.g. of uracil-DNA glycosylase activity of MBD4). Consequently, APE1 shows DNA length dependence with preferential repair of short DNA duplexes. APE1-catalyzed oligomerization along DNA induces helix distortions, which in turn enable conformational selection and stimulation of DNA glycosylases | Homo sapiens |
