DAG for GO:0003906id: GO:0003906

name: DNA-(apurinic or apyrimidinic site) endonuclease activity
namespace: molecular_function
def: "Catalysis of the cleavage of the C-O-P bond in the AP site created when DNA glycosylase removes a damaged base, involved in the DNA base excision repair pathway (BER)." [Wikipedia:AP_endonuclease]
comment: Note that this term is does not have parentage in the 'nuclease activity' branch of the ontology because both GO and the Enzyme Commission define nuclease activity as a type of hydrolysis. Class II AP endonuclease is a nuclease, but not Class I, III and IV.
