'''Solution Structure of 3-Methyladenine DNA Glycosylase I (TAG)'''<br />
'''Solution Structure of 3-Methyladenine DNA Glycosylase I (TAG)'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
The Escherichia coli enzyme 3-methyladenine DNA glycosylase I (TAG), hydrolyzes the glycosidic bond of 3-methyladenine (3-MeA) in DNA and is, found in many bacteria and some higher eukaryotes. TAG shows little, primary sequence identity with members of the well-known, helix-hairpin-helix (HhH) superfamily of DNA repair glycosylases, which, consists of AlkA, EndoIII, MutY and hOGG1. Unexpectedly, the, three-dimensional solution structure reported here reveals TAG as member, of this superfamily. The restricted specificity of TAG for 3-MeA bases, probably arises from its unique aromatic rich 3-MeA binding pocket and the, absence of a catalytic aspartate that is present in all other HhH family, members.
