GONUTS is under stress! The website is currently experiencing long-wait times and frequent time-outs due to the record number of students, groups, and annotations related to CACAO this semester. We are currently working on increasing performance -- please accept our apologies for the technical difficulties.
You can help reduce stress on the server by:
- not reloading pages frequently - this just adds
- opening links in new windows (so you can read the old page)
Category:GO:0006291 ! pyrimidine-dimer repair, DNA damage excision
This GO term has been obsoleted.
Do not annotate to it.
id: GO:0006291
name: pyrimidine-dimer repair, DNA damage excision
namespace: biological_process
def: "OBSOLETE. The excision of damaged DNA during pyrimidine-dimer repair. A large multienzyme complex scans the DNA for a distortion in the double helix rather than for a specific base change. Once a bulky lesion is found, the phosphodiester backbone of the abnormal strand is cleaved on both sides of the distortion, and the portion of the strand containing the lesion (an oligonucleotide) is peeled away from the DNA double helix by a DNA helicase enzyme." [ISBN:0815316194]
comment: This term was made obsolete because this process can be subdivided into multiple processes.
is_obsolete: true
consider: GO:0006289 ! nucleotide-excision repair
