We are deeply saddened by the passing of Amos Bairoch (1957–2025), the creator of PROSITE. We wish to dedicate our latest paper, published shortly before his death, to him. He will always be a source of inspiration to us.
Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends, and to all those who had the privilege of working with him. Rest in peace, Amos. Your work will live on long after you are gone.
Amos Bairoch

Data class Domain;
Predictors PROSITE; PS51432; AP_NUCLEASE_F2_4
Name AP endonucleases family 2
Function Endonuclease 4 related enzymes play a role in DNA repair. These nucleases cleave phosphodiester bonds at apurinic or apyrimidinic sites (AP sites) to produce new 5'-ends that are base-free deoxyribose 5-phosphate residues.
Scope(s) Bacteria
Archaea
Eukaryota
Viruses
Example(s) A4IR02; Q966U0; Q5UPY4; Q10002;
