Research Abstract |
We successfully prepared highly homogeneous human MUTYH recombinant protein, and compared the repair activity of 14 variant proteins with that of the wild -type protein. Several variant proteins showed striking low activity, and their variants may contribute to the development of MUTYH-associated polyposis. To search new substrate of base excision repair enzymes, we prepared 8 enzymes, and examined the repair activity against an oligonucleotide containing etheno-DNA adducts, a lipid peroxidation-derived DNA adducts. The base excision repair enzyme, TDG, had activity that is capable of removing thymine mispaired with etheno-DNA adduct of cytosine or guanine.
