Disentangling Unusual Catalytic Properties and the Role of the [4Fe-4S] Cluster of Three Endonuclease III from the Extremophile <i>D. radiodurans</i>

Endonuclease III (EndoIII) is a bifunctional DNA glycosylase with specificity for a broad range of oxidized DNA lesions. The genome of an extremely radiation- and desiccation-resistant bacterium, <i>Deinococcus radiodurans</i>, possesses three genes encoding for EndoIII-like enzymes (DrE...
