Leadzyme is a relatively small catalytic RNA that uses a unique two-step reaction to cleave within the active site <ref name= "blue">PMID:25962038</ref> . In the presence of Pb^2+, it catalyzes the cleavage of the C6-C7 phosphodiester bond <ref name= red/> . This is accomplished via nucleophilic attack <ref name=red/> . The resulting in a 2', 3'-cyclic phosphate and a 5'-hydroxyl terminus <ref name= red/> . The nuclear magnetic resonance spectrospcopy (NMR) and crystal structure of leadzyme has been used to try to betterr understand the cleavage reaction process <ref name=red/> . However, neither data sets revealed the proposed in-line alignment for attack by the 2'-OH nucleophilic group as described experimentally <ref name=blue> . Therefore: it is hypothesized that the structures represent ground states of leadzyme and are not catalytically active <ref name=blue/> .

This Sandbox is Reserved from September 14, 2021, through May 31, 2022, for use in the class Introduction to Biochemistry taught by User:John Means at the University of Rio Grande, Rio Grande, OH, USA. This reservation includes 5 reserved sandboxes (Sandbox Reserved 1590 through Sandbox Reserved 1594).
To get started:
  • Click the edit this page tab at the top. Save the page after each step, then edit it again.
  • Click the 3D button (when editing, above the wikitext box) to insert Jmol.
  • show the Scene authoring tools, create a molecular scene, and save it. Copy the green link into the page.
  • Add a description of your scene. Use the buttons above the wikitext box for bold, italics, links, headlines, etc.

More help: Help:Editing. For an example of a student Proteopedia page, please see Photosystem II, Tetanospasmin, or Guanine riboswitch.
