Deoxyribodipyrimidine endonucleosidase

Deoxyribodipyrimidine endonucleosidase (EC 3.2.2.17, pyrimidine dimer DNA-glycosylase, endonuclease V, deoxyribonucleate pyrimidine dimer glycosidase, pyrimidine dimer DNA glycosylase, T4-induced UV endonuclease, PD-DNA glycosylase) is an enzyme with systematic name deoxy-D-ribocyclobutadipyrimidine polynucleotidodeoxyribohydrolase.

[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction The only family of enzymes known to have this activity is represented by a phage T4 protein.

This family also has AP lyase activity against the AP site produced by this reaction.
