Neil DNA glycosylases promote substrate turnover by Tdg during DNA demethylation

During oxidative DNA demethylation, Neil DNA glycosylases stimulate processing of abasic sites generated by Tdg, which excises 5-methylcytosine oxidation products generated by Tet dioxygenases, promoting restoration of unmodified cytosines via base excision repair.
