Function
Plays a key role in the repair of DNA damage, functioning as part of both the non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) and base excision repair (BER) pathways. Through its two catalytic activities, PNK ensures that DNA termini are compatible with extension and ligation by either removing 3'-phosphates from, or by phosphorylating 5'-hydroxyl groups on, the ribose sugar of the DNA backbone.
Reactome Pathway
APEX1-Independent Resolution of AP Sites via the Single Nucleotide Replacement Pathway (R-HSA-5649702 )
