Biochemical reconstitution of TET1–TDG–BER-dependent active DNA demethylation reveals a highly coordinated mechanism
Cytosine methylation is a dynamic DNA modification with the involvement of the base excision repair pathway suspected to be involved in demethylation. Here the authors show that TET1 and TDG interact to target modified bases and coordinate BER to avoid double strand breaks.
