Methyladenine glycosylase bound to DNA C014 / 0877
Methyladenine glycosylase bound to DNA. Computer model showing a molecule of human DNA-3-methyladenine glycosylase (purple) in complex with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, green and orange). This enzyme is involved in protecting DNA against alkylating agents. It initiates base excision repair by removing damaged bases to create abasic sites that are subsequently repaired

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer-generated model of Methyladenine glycosylase bound to DNA, providing us with a visual representation of the intricate molecular interactions involved in protecting our genetic material. The image features a molecule of human DNA-3-methyladenine glycosylase, depicted in an alluring shade of purple, intricately intertwined with the green and orange strands that represent DNA. Methyladenine glycosylase is an essential enzyme responsible for safeguarding our DNA against alkylating agents that can cause damage. It plays a crucial role in initiating base excision repair by removing damaged bases from the DNA strand, creating abasic sites that are subsequently repaired. This process ensures the integrity and stability of our genetic information. The white background emphasizes the complexity and beauty inherent in this biological system. Through this artwork, we gain insight into the fascinating world of molecular biology and genetics. The detailed illustration highlights how proteins like Methyladenine glycosylase interact with nucleic acids such as DNA to carry out vital functions within living organisms. This stunning image serves as a reminder of both the fragility and resilience present within our genetic code. It symbolizes not only scientific progress but also our ongoing quest to understand and protect one of life's most fundamental components – deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
