Crystal structure of exonuclease RecJ bound to manganese
Overview
RecJ, a 5' to 3' exonuclease specific for single-stranded DNA, functions in DNA repair and recombination systems. We determined the crystal structure of RecJ bound to Mn(2+) ion essential for its activity. RecJ has a novel fold in which two domains are interconnected by a long helix, forming a central groove. Mn(2+) is located on the wall of the groove and is coordinated by conserved residues characteristic of a family of phosphoesterases that includes RecJ proteins. The groove is composed of residues conserved among RecJ proteins and is positively charged. These findings and the narrow width of the groove indicate that the groove binds single- instead of double-stranded DNA.
About this Structure
1IR6 is a Single protein structure of sequence from Thermus thermophilus with as ligand. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
