BioCyc:RXN0-7484 CPD0-2726 + 2-KETOGLUTARATE + OXYGEN-MOLECULE --> DNA-Adenines + CPD-21542 + CARBON-DIOXIDE + SUC
BioCyc:RXN0-986 N1-ETHYLADENINE-IN-DNA + 2-KETOGLUTARATE + OXYGEN-MOLECULE --> DNA-Adenines + ACETALD + SUC + CARBON-DIOXIDE AlkB catalyzes repair of DNA lesions caused by SN2 methylating compounds, rather than lesions caused by SN1 methylating compounds or ionizing radiation |CITS: [10950872]|. AlkB preferentially binds to and repairs methylation lesions in single-stranded DNA rather than double-stranded DNA, suggesting that AlkB repair activity may be specific for the single-stranded DNA present during transcription and DNA replication |CITS: [10950872]|. AlkB also catalyzes repair of methylated RNA |CITS: [12594517]|.
BioCyc:RXN-18739 CPD-20035 + 2-KETOGLUTARATE + OXYGEN-MOLECULE --> DAMP + FORMALDEHYDE + SUC + CARBON-DIOXIDE
BioCyc:RXN0-7280 CPD-20036 + 2-KETOGLUTARATE + OXYGEN-MOLECULE --> DATP + FORMALDEHYDE + SUC + CARBON-DIOXIDE

BioCyc:RXN0-984 N1-METHYLADENINE + OXYGEN-MOLECULE + 2-KETOGLUTARATE --> ADENINE + CARBON-DIOXIDE + FORMALDEHYDE + SUC AlkB preferentially binds to and repairs methylation lesions in single-stranded DNA rather than double-stranded DNA, suggesting that AlkB repair activity may be specific for the single-stranded DNA present during transcription and DNA replication |CITS: [10950872]|. AlkB also catalyzes repair of methylated RNA |CITS: [12594517]|. AlkB-mediated repair involves hydroxylation of methylation lession coupled to decarboxylation of α-ketoglutarate, an unusual repair mechanism that regenerates the intact, unmethylated base |CITS: [12226667], [12226668]|.
