Catalog #M0464

Product Introduction

M0464
  • Thermostable oxoguanine glycosylase
  • Bifunctional DNA glycosylase with DNA N-glycosylase and AP lyase activities
  • N-glycosylase activity releases 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG), generating an AP site. The AP-lyase activity cleaves 3′ to the AP site leaving a 5′ phosphate and a 3′-phospho-α, β-unsaturated aldehyde.

Product Information

Description

Highlights

  • Isolated from a recombinant source
  • Supplied with 10X Reaction Buffer
Thermostable OGG is an archaeal 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) DNA glycosylase which acts both as a N-glycosylase and an AP-lyase. The N-glycosylase activity releases the damaged purine (8-oxoguanine) from double stranded DNA, generating an apurinic (AP) site. The AP-lyase activity cleaves 3′ to the AP site leaving a 5′ phosphate and a 3′-phospho-α, β-unsaturated aldehyde. Unlike some other DNA glycosylases, Thermostable OGG specifically recognizes and cleaves only 8-oxoG and no other modified bases.  

Figure 1: Unlike Fpg, Thermostable OGG specifically recognizes and cleaves only 8-oxoguanine and no other modified bases. 



The ability to excise modified bases was queried by incubating Thermostable OGG (8 U) or Fpg (8 U) with fluorescently labeled dsDNA containing modified bases (either 8-oxoadenine, 5-hydroxycytosine, thymine glycol, 5-hydroxyuridine or 8-oxoguanine). Samples were analyzed by capillary electrophoresis and cleavage products are evidenced by the appearance of a cleaved product peak. Thermostable OGG only cleaves the 8-oxoguanine sample (top panel) while Fpg is active on other substrates including , 5-hydroxycytosine, thymine glycol and  5-hydroxyuridine (bottom panel).
