8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1, HMMH, HOGG1, MuTM, OGH1, AP lyase, 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1
OGG1, also known as 8-oxoguanine glycosylase, is a DNA glycosylase enzyme involved in base excision repair. This protein is the primary enzyme responsible for the excision of 7, 8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG), a mutagenic base byproduct which occurs as
