Functional narrative    

DNA-(apurinic or apyrimidinic site) lyase is a member of the AP endonuclease family and part of the base excision DNA repair pathway. DNA-(apurinic or apyrimidinic site) lyase protein has several functions, two of which are to clip DNA 5’ to AP sites by hydrolyzing the backbone of the DNA and Ref-1 activity. It regulates the sequence-specific DNA-binding affinity of p52 via a redox method (Robson, 1992). DNA-(apurinic or apyrimidinic site) lyase has interactions with at least two metal ions in its active sites.

Comments


For forms I, II and III of this protein referenced in Beernick (2001) , there is relatively high thermal motion in the areas of residues 100-110, 145, 200 and 270. These areas also show large root-mean-square fluctuations.
