Human Ape2 protein has a 3′–5′ exonuclease activity that acts preferentially on mismatched base pairs

DNA damage, such as abasic sites and DNA strand breaks with 3′-phosphate and 3′-phosphoglycolate termini present cytotoxic and mutagenic threats to the cell. Class II AP endonucleases play a major role in the repair of abasic sites as well as of 3′-modified termini. Human cells contain two class II...
