DEFINITION

DNA-(apurinic or apyrimidinic site) lyase (318 aa, ~36 kDa) is encoded by the human APEX1 gene. This protein plays a role in both DNA repair and the regulation of transcription.

DesignNote

A potent activator of p53 protein, APE1 may protect against cell lethality and suppress mutations produced by spontaneous hydrolysis, by chemicals and radiation, or by DNA glycosylases that remove abnormal bases from DNA. Abasic sites that can block DNA replication and cause mutations must be corrected to restore genetic integrity. A repressor of the PTH gene, APE binds to promoter negative Ca(2+)-response elements, which are also present in the APE1 gene.
