Use of a molecular beacon based fluorescent method for assaying uracil DNA glycosylase (Ung) activity and inhibitor screening
Uracil DNA glycosylases are an important class of enzymes that hydrolyze the N-glycosidic bond between the uracil base and the deoxyribose sugar to initiate uracil excision repair. Uracil may arise in DNA either because of its direct incorporation (against A in the template) or because of cytosine d...
