Crystal structure determination of uracil-DNA N-glycosylase (UNG) from Deinococcus radiodurans in complex with DNA - new insights into the role of the Leucine-loop for damage recognition and repair
[UNG_DEIRA] Excises uracil residues from the DNA which can arise as a result of misincorporation of dUMP residues by DNA polymerase or due to deamination of cytosine (By similarity).
