Specialization of an Exonuclease III family enzyme in the repair of 3' DNA lesions during base excision repair in the human pathogen Neisseria meningitidis.

We have previously demonstrated that the two Exonuclease III (Xth) family members present within the obligate human pathogen Neisseria meningitidis, NApe and NExo, are important for survival under conditions of oxidative stress. Of these, only NApe possesses AP endonuclease activity, while the prima...
