T. tengcongensis glmS ribozyme with G40A mutation, bound to glucosamine-6-phosphate and a substrate RNA with a 2'5'-phosphodiester linkage

Overview

The glmS ribozyme is a catalytic riboswitch that is activated for, endonucleolytic cleavage by the coenzyme glucosamine-6-phosphate. Using, kinetic assays and X-ray crystallography, we identify an active-site, mutation of a conserved guanine that abolishes catalysis without, perturbing coenzyme binding. Our results provide evidence that coenzyme, function requires a specific nucleobase to interact with the nucleophile, of the cleavage reaction.
