Background
In the DNA of higher eukaryotes, hydrolytic deamination of 5-methylcytosine to thymine leads to the formation of G/T mismatches. TDG(G/T mismatch-specific thymine DNA glycosylase) corrects G/T mispairs to G/C pairs. It is capable of hydrolyzing the carbon-nitrogen bond between the sugar-phosphate backbone of the DNA and a mispaired thymine. In addition to the G/T, TDG can remove thymine also from C/T and T/T mispairs in the order G/T >> C/T > T/T. It has no detectable activity on apyrimidinic sites and does not catalyze the removal of thymine from A/T pairs or from single-stranded DNA. TDG can also remove uracil and 5-bromouracil from mispairs with guanine. Sumoylation on Lys-330 by either SUMO1 or SUMO2 induces dissociation of the product DNA. TDG belongs to the TDG/mug DNA glycosylase family.
