Note
catalyzes hydrolysis of the N-glycosidic bond of damaged nucleotide residues to yield free 3-methyladenine; catalyzes release of 3-methyladenine from methylated DNA (Me-DNA); does not cleave phosphodiester bonds; DNA repair enzyme; Aag (alkyladenine DNA glycosylase) has a broad substrate range that includes 3-methyladenine
