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...

description 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 or a fluorinated analog. These structures, together with biochemical and computational analyses, reveal that 5caC is specifically recognized in the active site of hTDG, supporting the role of TDG in mammalian 5-methylcytosine (5mC) demethylation.
