NEIL1 and NEIL2 DNA glycosylases protect neural crest development against mitochondrial oxidative stress [PDF]
Base excision repair (BER) functions not only in the maintenance of genomic integrity but also in active DNA demethylation and epigenetic gene regulation.

No cancer predisposition or increased spontaneous mutation frequencies in NEIL DNA glycosylases-deficient mice [PDF]
Base excision repair (BER) is a major pathway for removal of DNA base lesions and maintenance of genomic stability, which is essential in cancer prevention. DNA glycosylases recognize and remove specific lesions in the first step of BER. The existence of

Potent pollen gene regulation by DNA glycosylases in maize [PDF]
Although DNA methylation primarily represses TEs, it also represses select genes that are methylated in plant body tissues but demethylated by DNA glycosylases (DNGs) in endosperm or pollen.

Poxvirus uracil-DNA glycosylase-An unusual member of the family I uracil-DNA glycosylases. [PDF]
AbstractUracil‐DNA glycosylases are ubiquitous enzymes, which play a key role repairing damages in DNA and in maintaining genomic integrity by catalyzing the first step in the base excision repair pathway. Within the superfamily of uracil‐DNA glycosylases family I enzymes or UNGs are specific for recognizing and removing uracil from DNA.
