Supplementary information

UNG2 also known as uracil-DNA glycosylase 2 is a DNA repair enzyme with a mass of about 36 kDa. It operates mainly in the cell nucleus where it plays an important role in the base excision repair pathway. The enzyme detects and removes uracil from DNA molecules which often forms through deamination of cytosine or incorporation of dUMP instead of dTMP during DNA replication. By cleaving the N-glycosidic bond of uracil UNG2 initiates a repair process that helps maintain genetic integrity.
Biological function summary

The enzyme has a significant role in preserving the accuracy of genetic information. UNG2 works independently but it acts closely with other repair enzymes in the context of DNA damage response. UNG2 excises uracil efficiently facilitating downstream actions by other repair mechanisms which complete the repair process. The enzyme's activity ensures that DNA mutations which may compromise cellular functions or lead to diseases do not accumulate.

Pathways

The enzyme participates actively in the base excision repair pathway. This pathway critical for correcting small base lesions in DNA involves several components including APE1 and DNA polymerase beta. UNG2 collaborates with these proteins to ensure successful repair. Beyond this UNG2's activity is also linked to immunoglobulin gene diversification processes necessary for adaptive immunity thereby involving itself in immunity pathways.

Excessive or deficient activity of UNG2 links to certain conditions. Disruption in UNG2 function may contribute to cancer development due to its role in repairing DNA and preventing mutations. The enzyme's actions also intersect with viral infections; certain viruses such as Epstein-Barr virus may manipulate UNG2 function to favor their replication. Exploring these interactions can provide insights into potential therapeutic targets for these conditions.

Target data

Uracil-DNA glycosylase that hydrolyzes the N-glycosidic bond between uracil and deoxyribose in single- and double-stranded DNA (ssDNA and dsDNA) to release a free uracil residue and form an abasic (apurinic/apyrimidinic; AP) site. Excises uracil residues arising as a result of misincorporation of dUMP residues by DNA polymerase during replication or due to spontaneous or enzymatic deamination of cytosine (PubMed : 12958596, PubMed : 15967827, PubMed : 17101234, PubMed : 22521144, PubMed : 7671300, PubMed : 8900285, PubMed : 9016624, PubMed : 9776759). Mediates error-free base excision repair (BER) of uracil at replication forks. According to the model, it is recruited by PCNA to S-phase replication forks to remove misincorporated uracil at U : A base mispairs in nascent DNA strands. Via trimeric RPA it is recruited to ssDNA stretches ahead of the polymerase to allow detection and excision of deaminated cytosines prior to replication. The resultant AP sites temporarily stall replication, allowing time to repair the lesion (PubMed : 22521144). Mediates mutagenic uracil processing involved in antibody affinity maturation. Processes AICDA-induced U : G base mispairs at variable immunoglobulin (Ig) regions leading to the generation of transversion mutations (PubMed : 12958596). Operates at switch sites of Ig constant regions where it mediates Ig isotype class switch recombination. Excises AICDA-induced uracil residues forming AP sites that are subsequently nicked by APEX1 endonuclease. The accumulation of staggered nicks in opposite strands results in double strand DNA breaks that are finally resolved via non-homologous end joining repair pathway (By similarity) (PubMed : 12958596).
