Hi @jimhu-tamu ,
I removed the parent 'GO:0003906_!_DNA-(apurinic_or_apyrimidinic_site)_lyase_activity'. The remaining parent is " GO:0000702 oxidized base lesion DNA N-glycosylase activity".
Thanks, Pascale
Hi @jimhu-tamu
One other question about this: do you know if it's OK that GO:0003906 DNA-(apurinic or apyrimidinic site) lyase activity is a child of both
Either these two reactions are synonymous, or the enzyme catalyzes two reactions - or one of the reactions is wrong.
Thanks, Pascale
@pgaudet per wikipedia, there are four classes that use different chemistry and that cleave in different places.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_endonuclease
There are four types of AP endonucleases that have been classified according to their mechanism and site of incision. Class I AP endonucleases cleave 3' to AP sites by a β-lyase mechanism, leaving an unsaturated aldehyde, termed a 3'-(4-hydroxy-5-phospho-2-pentenal) residue, and a 5'-phosphate. Class II AP endonucleases incise DNA 5' to AP sites by a hydrolytic mechanism, leaving a 3'-hydroxyl and a 5'-deoxyribose phosphate residue.[2] Class III and class IV AP endonucleases also cleave DNA at the phosphate groups 3´ and 5´to the baseless site, but they generate a 3´-phosphate and a 5´-OH.[3]
I think the current term definition applies to only to Class I. It seems to me that there should be an umbrella term for AP endo activity independent of mechanism, with children for the classes. Based on the wikipedia article, it may turn out that most of the annotation to this term is incorrect wrt lyase vs nuclease.
Hi again,
I thought it was outside the scope of GO to capture reaction mechanisms. I am happy to create new terms if needed. I will bring that up at the next editors call.

I checked a number of proteins annotated to GO:0003906_!_DNA-(apurinic_or_apyrimidinic_site)_lyase_activity to see how they were annotated in UniProt. UniProt has a note on all the ones I checked that says “The C-O-P bond 3' to the apurinic or apyrimidinic site in DNA is broken by a beta-elimination reaction, leaving a 3'-terminal unsaturated sugar and a product with a terminal 5'-phosphate.” This refers to the ‘ClassI’, mechanism, but there also Class 2 in that list (at least P87175), see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_endonuclease
Kristian Axelen from UniProt is looking into this.

The decision from the GO editors discussion is to represent all different activities.
Hi Pascale, not sure I understand which way the discussion went. One term to represent different activities or all activities represented by their own terms? I'm OK with either as long as the definitions are consistent.
It would be different terms, since they need to have different parents. If you have suggestions for name and definitions those would be welcome !
Thanks, Pascale

Modified the parent of GO:0003906_!_DNA-(apurinic_or_apyrimidinic_site)_lyase_activity because it's not classified as a nuclease (ie, an hydrolyze) by EC, except for Class II. -is_a: GO:0004520 ! endodeoxyribonuclease activity
===
Added cross ref EC:4.2.99.18 to Class I and III, but not Class II because that's the enzyme with the hydrolytic mechanism. However EC lists APEX2_HUMAN as one member of the EC:4.2.99.18 class - I don't know why EC doesn't distinguish the different classes.

Terms are in the ontology, I am waiting for feedback from K. Axelen before closing.
Message to Kristian Axelen:
Hello,
There are 3 types en endonucleases, Class I, II and III (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_endonuclease http://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdfplus/10.1021/cr980321h
According to wikipedia human APE1 (P27695) is a Class II. I wonder if its current EC number is correct, which refers to Class I (and possibly Class III ) reactions.
I am trying to fix the corresponding GO terms; and input would be much appreciated !
Thanks, Pascale
Reply: Hi Pascale,
You are right, APE1 is a class II AP endonuclease, and no EC 4.2.99.18 cannot be used as it only covers the class I enzymes. It took me a little while to understand the subject since also the wikipedia article was misleading by citing the EC number (as BRENDA 4.2.99.18) just after the name AP endonuclease. I have now corrected this error in wikipedia.
Next, it complicates matters that only the class I enzymes have a unique EC number. There are at least two EC numbers associated with class II enzymes, Exodeoxyribonuclease III (EX3_ECOLI), to which APE1 is similar, is covered by EC 3.1.11.2, while Endonuclease 4 (END4_ECOLI) to which APN1_YEAST (P22936) is covered by EC 3.1.21.2.
So, while I can quite easily correct the EC errors concerning APE1 and APN1, it will be a much larger task to verify the annotation of the 626 other Swiss-Prot entries annotated as EC 4.2.99.18 enzymes.
I will keep you updated when I more progress to report.
Cheers,
Kristian
This ticket is closed as far as GO is concerned. @kaxelsen : I am notifying you that I am closing this.
Thanks, Pascale
The flip side of #10725
GO:0003906 has these direct children Is a GO:0000703 oxidized pyrimidine nucleobase lesion DNA N-glycosylase activity Is a GO:0000704 pyrimidine dimer DNA N-glycosylase activity Is a GO:0008534 oxidized purine nucleobase lesion DNA N-glycosylase activity
These are all incorrect. First, a DNA N-glycosylase is not the same as the endonuclease that cleaves the backbone. Second, the damaged bases are not abasic. These activities create the substrate for the APE, but they are not APEs themselves.
