Structures of LIG1 that engage with mutagenic mismatches inserted by polβ in base excision repair

DNA ligase I (LIG1) catalyzes the ligation of the nick repair intermediate after gap filling by DNA polymerase (pol) β during downstream steps of the base excision repair (BER) pathway. However, how LIG1 discriminates against the mutagenic 3′-mismatches incorporated by polβ at atomic resolution rema...
