Match the statements with the correct types of DNA repair systems. Not all statements will be used. Mismatch Base excision Nucleotide excision The repair system that is only active following DNA replication. Uracil is removed from DNA strands. thyl groups on parental DNA es remove misplace bases in the absence strands are recognized by repair enzymes. of DNA glycosylase Glycosylases cleave an altered base from a sugar, creatin The emergency repair system is extreme. au initiated when DNA damage an apurinic or apyrimidinic s

Explanation / Answer

BASE EXTENSION-URACIL IS REMOVED FROM dna strand.

glycosylases cleave an altered base from a suger creating an apurinic or apyrimidic site.

DNA MISMATCH-the repair system that is only active following DNA replication.,methyl groups on parental DNA strands are recognised by repair enZYME.

methyl groups on parental dna strands are recognised by repair enzyme.

NUCLEOTIDE EXTENSION--enzymes remove misplaced bases in the absence of DNA glycosylase.
