UniProt Comments
Repairs oxidative DNA damages, seems also to act as a redox factor (PubMed:7512729). Is multifunctional and may be involved both in DNA repair and in the regulation of transcription (PubMed:7512729). Exhibits apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease activity (PubMed:25569774, PubMed:21781197, PubMed:25228464). Catalyzes the conversion of 3'-phosphor-alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehyde (3'-PUA) to 3'-OH (PubMed:25228464). May be involved in base excision repair in chloroplasts (PubMed:19372224). According to a report, has a significant in vitro 3'-phosphatase activity (PubMed:25228464). According to another report, has no in vitro 3'-phosphatase activity (PubMed:25569774). Has a strong non-specific affinity to DNA (PubMed:25228464).
