Preferred Label : Formation of Apurinic Site;
NCIt definition : Formation of Apurinic Site involves the creation of an apurinic site as a result of
the loss of a purine residue from DNA. Purine residues are especially vulnerable to
cleavage of the N-glycosylic bond between the purine residue and sugar moiety of the
nucleotide, leaving in DNA a nucleotide position with no base attached.;
