OGG1 (N-glycosylase/DNA lyase) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as a DNA repair gene, and the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.
DNA repair enzyme that incises DNA at 8-oxoG residues. Excises 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine and 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-N-methylformamidopyrimidine (FAPY) from damaged DNA. Has a beta-lyase activity that nicks DNA 3' to the lesion.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.66 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes genetic literature 0.30, affected pathway 0.89, literature 0.98, genetic association 0.01, somatic mutation 0.55, animal model 0.74).
In plain words · OGG1 (N-glycosylase/DNA lyase) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as a DNA repair gene, and the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.

No product in this corpus aims at OGG1 yet. Inhibitors are shaped to fit the enzyme's active site so the reaction the cancer relies on stops.
First described 1997. Earliest sequence paper UniProt cites for the protein: Aburatani et al, Cancer Res, 1997, "Cloning and characterization of mammalian 8-hydroxyguanine-specific DNA glycosylase/apurinic, apyrimidinic lyase, a functional mutM homologue". Source.
