Human cytomegalovirus terminase nuclease domain, Mn soaked

Function
[TERL_HCMVA] Component of the molecular motor that translocates genomic DNA in empty capsid during DNA packaging. Heterodimerizes with small terminase protein to be docked on capsid portal protein. The latter forms a ring in which genomic DNA in translocated into the capsid. May have or induce an endonuclease activity to cleave the genome concatemer after encapsidation (By similarity).
About this Structure
3n4q is a 4 chain structure with sequence from Human herpesvirus 5. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
