CC -!- FUNCTION: Sensor of abasic sites in single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)
CC required to preserve genome integrity by promoting error-free repair of
CC abasic sites (By similarity). Acts as an enzyme that recognizes and
CC binds abasic sites in ssDNA at replication forks and chemically
CC modifies the lesion by forming a covalent cross-link with DNA: forms a
CC stable thiazolidine linkage between a ring-opened abasic site and the
CC alpha-amino and sulfhydryl substituents of its N-terminal catalytic
CC cysteine residue (By similarity). The HMCES DNA-protein cross-link is
CC then degraded by the proteasome (By similarity). Promotes error-free
CC repair of abasic sites by acting as a 'suicide' enzyme that is
CC degraded, thereby protecting abasic sites from translesion synthesis
CC (TLS) polymerases and endonucleases that are error-prone and would
CC generate mutations and double-strand breaks (By similarity). Has
CC preference for ssDNA, but can also accommodate double-stranded DNA with
CC 3' or 5' overhang (dsDNA), and dsDNA-ssDNA 3' junction (By similarity).
CC Also involved in class switch recombination (CSR) in B-cells
CC independently of the formation of a DNA-protein cross-link: acts by
CC binding and protecting ssDNA overhangs to promote DNA double-strand
CC break repair through the microhomology-mediated alternative-end-joining
CC (Alt-EJ) pathway (PubMed:31806351). Acts as a protease: mediates
CC autocatalytic processing of its N-terminal methionine in order to
CC expose the catalytic cysteine (PubMed:29020633).

CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:31806351}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts (via PIP-box motif) with PCNA.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q96FZ2}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Chromosome {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q96FZ2}.
CC Note=Recruited to chromatin following DNA damage. Localizes to
CC replication forks. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q96FZ2}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in embryonic stem cells.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29020633}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Glu-127 is involved in sensing abasic sites in single-stranded
CC DNA (ssDNA). His-209 stabilizes the abasic sites by forming a hydrogen
CC bond with the O4' hydroxyl group. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P76318}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Embryonic sublethality and altered DNA
CC methylation, possibly caused by accumulation of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine
CC (5hmC) in genomic DNA (PubMed:29020633). Mice do not show defects in
CC hematopoiesis and no alterations in global 5hmC levels in bone marrow
CC cells (PubMed:31806351). In contrast, mice display a decrease in class
CC switch recombination (CSR) in mature activated B-cells
CC (PubMed:31806351). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29020633,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:31806351}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the SOS response-associated peptidase family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- CAUTION: Was initially reported to specifically bind 5-
CC hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC)-containing DNA in stem cells
CC (PubMed:23434322). It was later suggested to act as an endonuclease
CC that specifically cleaves 5hmC-containing DNA (PubMed:29020633).
CC However, recent studies question this activity: no alterations in
CC global 5hmC levels are observed in bone marrow cells from knockout mice
CC (PubMed:31806351). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23434322,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:29020633, ECO:0000269|PubMed:31806351}.
