Abstract
⺠Recent structural and mechanistic studies of DNA glycosylases are reviewed. ⺠DNA glycosylases excise oxidized, alkylated, or deaminated nucleobases. ⺠Five structural folds use base flipping to recognize and remove damage. ⺠A sixth architecture traps destabilized base pairs without a base binding pocket.
