In nucleotide excision repair, damaged dna is excised by what enzyme(s)? see concept 16.2 (page 327)

In nucleotide excision pair, damaged DNA is excised by the enzyme Nuclease.  Nucleotide excision repair is important in that it removes DNA damage induced by utraviolet light which causes non-helix distorting base lesions. This process is carried out by nucleases enzymes which break down nucleic acids.
