Mechanism of incision by an apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease present in human placenta.
An apparently homogeneous enzyme preparation, containing an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease from human placenta, was by DNA sequencing analysis found to act as a class I AP-endonuclease, i.e. produce a 3'-deoxyribose and 5'-phosphomonoester nucleotide termini.
