Functional Cluster: Stability of perfectly conserved Asn168
WebLogo for the first functional unit, note the covariation between lysine nad arginine, which support the crucial Asn174 Asn74, along with two other amino acids have an effect in the orientation and kinking of the DNA. In 4 of the 9 clades (Fpg1, Fpg2 and Plants and Fungi) Asn174 is supported by Lys160, which in turn hydrogen bonds with Leu249 and Ser250. In the other clades (Actinobacteria 1 and 2, Proteacteria and all vertebrate sequences), Arg171 that comes from a different helix fulfills the same roles as Lys160. One important difference is that the Zinc Finger is shaped differently in the absence of DNA, and there is a hydrogen bond between one of the beta-sheets and the arginine. One hypothesis is that the arginine or the lysine is necessary to support the Asn174, crucial for orientation of the DNA.

Functional Cluster: Stability of catalytic helix
The LER triad interact in stabilize the catalytic helix (Pro2 and Glu3), it is not clear how this is achieved in the other subfamilies The triad Leu4, Glu8 and Arg57 interact and provide stability to helixA, which has the catalytic residue Pro2,Glu3 and Glu6. This triad is present in the same four clades as above (Fpg1, Fpg2 and Plants and Fungi). This triad is not present in the remaining clades and it is not clear how the same stability is provided. Leu211 also has a hydrophobic interaction with Leu4.
|
Functional Cluster: Stability of intercalation loop
The intercalation loop inserts into the DNA when the base is everted. This structure, as well as a group of amino acids that support it exhibit high conservation in Fpg, AY, plants and Neil1, but not on the rest. Note that the amino acid composition suggests that mimivirus has this structure.
|
Functional Cluster: Stability of key Gly59 and Lys60
Notice the covariation in Neil1 and the rest with positions 134 and 137 and 170
Gly59 and Lys60 are important in the activity of MutM. We hypothesize that Glu137 is very important to maintain its stability, this amino acid is compensated by Asn172 in Neil1 </ref>
|
Functional Cluster: Intercalation Loop
The intercalation loop inserts into the space left by the excised base.
The residue E2 and E6 have been mutated, with the first one inactivating the protein and the second one having no major effect [1].
|
Functional Cluster: Zinc/zincless finger
The Zinc Finger helps as a support of the key R264 residue The Zinc finger (of the CCCC type) serves to hold the absolutely conserved Arg264 residue [2], which binds to the phosphate of the damaged base. The mutation of R252 results in failed cleavage of the damaged base [3]. Site directed mutagenesis experiments have been performed on all cysteines of this In Neil1, there is no Zinc but there is an equivalent structure [4]. Both the plants and mimivirus have a zincless finger, although it is not clear if this one is homologous
|
Functional Cluster: Recognition Complex
This complex is key in recognizing a damaged guanine[5]
|
Functional Cluster: DNA binding Tyrosine
Tyrosine that binds to DNA, the plant has a different structure alltogether
|
Zinc/zincless finger
Tyrosine that binds to DNA, the plant has a different structure alltogether
Evolution
The FpgNei evolution has not been easy to resolve [6], especially in the deeper branches. Assuming that functional clusters evolve more slowly than individual residues, we can use this as phylogenetic characters to 1) draw the most parsimonious evolution of the superfamily as dictated by these functional clusters 2) examine how these clusters have evolved and how this might have influenced the evolution of FpgNei.
