EOG8RNDQB GO:0003684 24/88 damaged DNA binding molecular_function "Interacting selectively and non-covalently with damaged DNA." [GOC:jl] EOG8RNDQB GO:0006289 24/88 nucleotide-excision repair biological_process "A DNA repair process in which a small region of the strand surrounding the damage is removed from the DNA helix as an oligonucleotide. The small gap left in the DNA helix is filled in by the sequential action of DNA polymerase and DNA ligase. Nucleotide excision repair recognizes a wide range of substrates, including damage caused by UV irradiation (pyrimidine dimers and 6-4 photoproducts) and chemicals (intrastrand cross-links and bulky adducts)." [PMID:10197977] EOG8RNDQB GO:0008534 24/88 oxidized purine nucleobase lesion DNA N-glycosylase activity molecular_function "Catalysis of the removal of oxidized purine bases by cleaving the N-C1' glycosidic bond between the oxidized purine and the deoxyribose sugar. The reaction involves the formation of a covalent enzyme-substrate intermediate. Release of the enzyme and free base by a beta-elimination or a beta, gamma-elimination mechanism results in the cleavage of the DNA backbone 3' of the apurinic (AP) site." [GOC:elh, PMID:11554296] EOG8RNDQB GO:0006284 23/88 base-excision repair biological_process "In base excision repair, an altered base is removed by a DNA glycosylase enzyme, followed by excision of the resulting sugar phosphate. The small gap left in the DNA helix is filled in by the sequential action of DNA polymerase and DNA ligase." [ISBN:0815316194] EOG8RNDQB GO:0006974 1/88 cellular response to DNA damage stimulus biological_process "Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus indicating damage to its DNA from environmental insults or errors during metabolism." [GOC:go_curators] EOG8RNDQB GO:0005634 1/88 nucleus cellular_component "A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent." [GOC:go_curators] EOG8RNDQB GO:0005737 1/88 cytoplasm cellular_component "All of the contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures."
