General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function the absence of either exonuclease III or endonuclease IV has no effect on survival. Exonuclease III and endonuclease IV are equally able to repair the apurinic-apyrimidinic site created by PD-DNA glycosylase. This apurinic-apyrimidinic site is atypical, since only the 5' glycosyl bond in the dimer is cleaved and the product is a cyclobutane dimer bound to DNA by a single glycosyl bond. Neither T4 endonuclease V nor endonuclease III is required for the repair of these apurinic-apyrimidinic sites Tequatrovirus T4
