EOG8NZS98
sce:OGG1
Genes: 31
SGD DescriptionNuclear and mitochondrial glycosylase/lyase; specifically excises 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine residues located opposite cytosine or thymine residues in DNA, repairs oxidative damage to mitochondrial DNA, contributes to UVA resistance
AspGD DescriptionOrtholog(s) have oxidized purine nucleobase lesion DNA N-glycosylase activity and role in base-excision repair, AP site formation, error-free translesion synthesis, telomere maintenance via telomerase
