mismatch base pair DNA N-glycosylase activity

id: GO:0000700
name: mismatch base pair DNA N-glycosylase activity
namespace: molecular_function
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: Catalysis of the removal of single bases present in mismatches by the cleavage the N-C1' glycosidic bond between the target damaged DNA base and the deoxyribose sugar. The reaction releases a free base and leaves an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site.
