'''Structure of a non-covalent Endonuclease III-DNA Complex'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
Nearly all cells express proteins that confer resistance to the mutagenic, effects of oxidative DNA damage. The primary defense against the toxicity, of oxidative nucleobase lesions in DNA is the base-excision repair (BER), pathway. Endonuclease III (EndoIII) is a [4Fe-4S] cluster-containing DNA, glycosylase with repair activity specific for oxidized pyrimidine lesions, in duplex DNA. We have determined the crystal structure of a trapped, intermediate that represents EndoIII frozen in the act of repairing DNA., The structure of the protein-DNA complex provides insight into the ability, of EndoIII to recognize and repair a diverse array of oxidatively damaged, bases. This structure also suggests a rationale for the frequent, occurrence in certain human cancers of a specific mutation in the related, DNA repair protein MYH.
