4lzb
From Proteopedia
Uracil binding pocket in Vaccinia virus uracil DNA glycosylase
Function
[UNG_VACCA] 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. Also part of a heterodimeric processivity factor which potentiates the DNA polymerase activity. Binds to DNA.
