Thymine DNA glycosylase specifically recognizes 5-carboxylcytosine-modified DNA

Human thymine DNA glycosylase (hTDG) efficiently excises 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC), a key oxidation product of 5-methylcytosine in a recently discovered cytosine demethylation pathway. We present here the crystal structures of hTDG catalytic domain in complex with duplex DNA containing either 5caC o...
