MeSH definition : An enzyme that removes THYMINE and URACIL bases mispaired with GUANINE through hydrolysis
of their N-glycosidic bond. These mispaired nucleotides generally occur through the
hydrolytic DEAMINATION of 5-METHYLCYTOSINE to thymine.;
MeSH synonym : dna glycosylase, thymine; g-t mismatch-specific thymine dna glycosylase; thymine glycol dna glycosylase; thymine glycol glycosylase; glycosylase, thymine dna; glycol glycosylase, thymine; glycosylase, thymine glycol; g t mismatch specific thymine dna glycosylase;
