DNA-3-methylguanine glycosylase activity

Term ID
GO:0052822
Synonyms
  • 3-methylguanine DNA glycosylase I
  • deoxyribonucleate 3-methylguanine glycosidase I
Definition
Catalysis of the reaction: DNA containing 3-methylguanine + H2O = DNA with abasic site + 3-methylguanine. This reaction is the hydrolysis of DNA by cleavage of the N-C1' glycosidic bond between the damaged DNA 3-methylguanine and the deoxyribose sugar to remove the 3-methylguanine, leaving an abasic site.
