<p>DNA glycosylases act to repair oxidative damage in DNA. These proteins are redundant as there are several different types of DNA glycosylases that are ale to compensate for one another. Examples include the endonuclease III subfamily, the mismatch glycosylases subfamily, the 3-methyladenine DNA glycosylases I subfamily, and the DNA repair glycosylases subfamily [<cite idref="PUB00014479"/>].</p>
