@mperhorvath881 discovers microbes at "Lost City" hydrothermal field resist oxidant-driven DNA mutations despite low O2. Finding MutY implies early life subject to oxidative DNA damage when Earth lacked O2. @DNALabUU@UUtah@uofuour@NSF

Congrats to DNA Lab students who contributed to this work! Finding MutY at the Lost City implies early life was under attack by oxidative DNA damage when Earth was young and lacked O2. https://t.co/fJdamlA0U9

X-ray structure, cell assays and biochem show a 3 residue loop in CTD of MutY (FiSH) finds DNA damage. Amazing discovery can help design cancer killing drugs. #DNArepair#DNAdamage#ChemicalBiology
