Mouse Gene Set: GOBP_BASE_EXCISION_REPAIR_AP_SITE_FORMATION

For the Human gene set with the same name, see GOBP_BASE_EXCISION_REPAIR_AP_SITE_FORMATION

Standard name GOBP_BASE_EXCISION_REPAIR_AP_SITE_FORMATION
Systematic name MM4651
Brief description The formation of an AP site, a deoxyribose sugar with a missing base, by DNA glycosylase which recognizes an altered base in DNA and catalyzes its hydrolytic removal. This sugar phosphate is the substrate recognized by the AP endonuclease, which cuts the DNA phosphodiester backbone at the 5' side of the altered site to leave a gap which is subsequently repaired.
