MPG (DNA-3-methyladenine glycosylase) belongs to the DNA glycosylase MPG family. This protein initiates base excision repair in DNA by removing a wide variety of alkylated, deaminated, and lipid peroxidation-induced purine adducts. Purified by using conventional chromatography techniques. Source: Recombinant corresponding to aa1-298 of human MPG, fused to His-tag at C-terminal, expressed in E.coli.
