Can also repair alkylated DNA containing 1- ethenoadenine (in vitro). Has strong preference for double- stranded DNA. Has low efficiency with single-stranded substrates. Requires molecular oxygen, alpha-ketoglutarate and iron. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12486230, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12594517, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16174769, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18432238, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18519673}.
