Structural highlights
Function
[A6B4U8_VIBPH] Involved in DNA damage recognition. Binds DNA containing O(6)-methylguanine (PubMed:20212037). Binds to the damaged base and flips the base out of the DNA duplex into an extrahelical conformation, which allows processing by repair proteins (By similarity).[UniProtKB:P0AFP2][1]
