FAQ: Will Thermostable OGG cut an 8-oxoguanine paired with a base other than cytosine?

While Thermostable OGG preferentially cleaves at the modified base (8-oxoG) when it is base paired with cytosine (C), the enzyme will cleave at the 8-oxoG regardless of what base is paired with the 8-oxoguanine.
