Planteome: Term Details for "DNA-5-methylcytosine glycosylase activity" (GO:1990053)

Accession: GO:1990053
Name: DNA-5-methylcytosine glycosylase activity
Ontology: molecular_function
Synonyms: None
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: Catalysis of the reaction: DNA containing 5-methylcytosine + H2O = DNA with abasic site + 5-methylcytosine. This reaction is the hydrolysis of DNA by cleavage of the N-C1' glycosidic bond between the DNA 5-methylcytosine and the deoxyribose sugar to remove the 5-methylcytosine, leaving an abasic site. Source: PMID:23316050
Comment: None
