Crystal Structure and Activity Analysis of Chlamydophila pneumoniae AP Endonuclease IV [PDF]

Biomolecules
DNA damage requires repair via the endonuclease IV-mediated base excision repair (BER) pathway, which corrects apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites. Chlamydophila pneumoniae AP endonuclease IV (CpEndoIV), the sole AP endonuclease in this pathogen, is crucial
