STRUCTURAL AND BIOCHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF A NEW MAGNESIUM ION BINDING SITE NEAR TYR94 IN THE RESTRICTION ENDONUCLEASE PVUII
Overview
We have determined the crystal structure of the PvuII endonuclease in the, presence of Mg(2+). According to the structural data, divalent metal ion, binding in the PvuII subunits is highly asymmetric. The PvuII-Mg(2+), complex has two distinct metal ion binding sites, one in each monomer. One, site is formed by the catalytic residues Asp58 and Glu68, and has, extensive similarities to a catalytically important site found in all, structurally examined restriction endonucleases. The other binding site is, located in the other monomer, in the immediate vicinity of the hydroxyl, group of Tyr94; it has no analogy to metal ion binding sites found so far, in restriction endonucleases. To assign the number of metal ions involved, and to better understand the role of Mg(2+) binding to Tyr94 for ... [(full description)]
