摘要

The DNA base excision repair (BER) pathway is required for maintaining genomic integrity and has recently been implicated in active DNA demethylation, revealing a key role in epigenetic gene regulation. To initiate BER, DNA glyco-sylases remove damaged or enzymatically modified bases by cleaving the base-sugar or .N-glycosylic bond, and the resulting abasic site is replaced by the appropriate nucleotide via downstream BER proteins. Thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG) plays an essential role in DNA repair and tran-scriptional regulation, by excising oxidized and/or deaminated forms of 5-methylcy-tosine (mC) that arise at CpG sites. TDG was discovered as an enzyme that excises thymine from G-T mispairs, mutagenic lesions that can arise by deamination of mC, and subsequent studies showed that TDG can excise a broad range of pyrimi-dine bases from DNA in vitro. It was recently discovered that TDG removes 5-formylcytosine (fC) and 5-carboxylcy-tosine (caC), oxidized forms of mC generated by Tet (ten-eleven translocation) enzymes.
