Expansion of base excision repair compensates for a lack of DNA repair by oxidative dealkylation in budding yeast
The Mag1 and Tpa1 proteins from budding yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) have both been reported to repair alkylation damage in DNA. Mag1 initiates the base excision repair pathway by removing alkylated bases from DNA, and Tpa1 has been proposed to directly repair alkylated bases as does the prototy...
