Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) catalyses the reduction of the four ribonucleotides to their corresponding deoxyribonucleotides needed for synthesis and repair of DNA. RNR is found in the genome of all living organisms, ...

The repair of DNA damage is crucial for the maintenance of genome stability. In base excision repair, lesion-specific DNA glycosylases recognize and cleave a variety of base lesions. The human Nei-like (NEIL) DNA glycosylases ...
