Ready-to-use ELISA kits are available for the detection of thymine-DNA glycosylase, an alias of the protein, thymine DNA glycosylase. The official gene symbol is TDG. The protein, with a mass of 46.1 kDa and length of 410 residues, is reported to be nuclear. It is a member of the Uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) superfamily, TDG/mug family and may be known by other names, including: hTDG, and G/T mismatch-specific thymine DNA glycosylase.
