Base-excisions and nucleotide-excisions (check
out the next bullet) work in much the same way. Base-excisions occur
when an unwanted base (such as uracil; see the section “Spontaneous
chemical changes” earlier in this chapter) is found. Specialized enzymes
recognize the damage, and the base is snipped out and replaced with
the correct one.
