Endonuclease 8-like 2, also known as NEIL2, belongs to a class of DNA glycosylases homologous to the bacterial Fpg/Nei family. These glycosylases initiate the first step in base excision repair by cleaving bases damaged by reactive oxygen species and introducing a DNA strand break via the associated lyase reaction. It has negligible or undetectable activity with 8-oxoguanine, thymine glycol, 2-hydroxyadenine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine. Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-332 from human NEIL2, fused to His-tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli.
