| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine DNA N-glycosylase activity and microtubule binding activity. Acts upstream of or within base-excision repair. Located in mitochondrion and nucleus. Is expressed in junctional zone and labyrinthine zone. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Graves' disease; artery disease (multiple); carcinoma (multiple); eye disease (multiple); and reproductive organ cancer (multiple). Orthologous to human OGG1 (8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous inactivation of this gene leads to accumulation of 8-hydroxyguanine and altered DNA repair. Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele remain healthy until at least 18 months of age. Mice homozygous for another knock-out allele develop spontaneouslung adenoma/carcinoma at ~1.5 years of age.
