Reaction: Excision of the abasic sugar phosphate (5'dRP) residue at the single strand break

- in pathway: Abasic sugar-phosphate removal via the single-nucleotide replacement pathway
After incision of the DNA strand 5' to the apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site by APEX1 (APE1), POLB (DNA polymerase beta) excises the 5'-terminal abasic deoxyribose phosphate (5'-dRP), thus removing the AP site (Bennet et al. 1997).
