    AlkA (Escherichia coli strain K-12 substr. MG1655) is product of expression of
    alkA
    gene.
  
   
   
 
  AlkA is involved in:
  
    
       BER  in Escherichia coli strain K-12 substr. MG1655
      
    
   
 
  
  Keywords:
  
   
 
  
    
   FUNCTION: Hydrolysis of the deoxyribose N-glycosidic bond to
      excise 3-methyladenine, 3-methylguanine, 7-methylguanine, O2-
      methylthymine, and O2-methylcytosine from the damaged DNA polymer
      formed by alkylation lesions.
  
   CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Hydrolysis of alkylated DNA, releasing 3-
      methyladenine, 3-methylguanine, 7-methylguanine and 7-
      methyladenine.
  
   SUBUNIT: Monomer.
  
   INTERACTION:
      P06959:aceF; NbExp=1; IntAct=EBI-544077, EBI-542707;
  
   INDUCTION: When E.coli cells are exposed to doses of DNA
      alkylating agent. It is not inhibited by reaction products.
  
   SIMILARITY: Belongs to the alkylbase DNA glycosidase alkA family.
