MeSH Supplementary: deoxyribopyrimidine endonucleosidase
Unique ID: C036401
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/C036401
Entry Term(s): 5' dimer DNA glycosylase-3'-apyrimidinic endonuclease; CPD glycosylase; cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer glycosylase; pyrimidine dimer-DNA glycosylase
Registry Numbers: EC 3.2.2.17
Previous Indexing: *ENDODEOXYRIBONUCLEASES (82-84); *N-GLYCOSYL HYDROLASES (1982-2003)
Heading Mapped to: *DNA Glycosylases
Frequency: 35
Note: cleaves the 5' residue of a pyrimidine dimer, giving an apyrimidinic site & a mixed pyrimidine/pyrimidine nucleotide dimer; associated endonuclease cleaves 3' to the apyrimidinic site, giving a 3'-deoxyribose moiety & a 5'-phosphate
