KLENOW FRAGMENT WITH NORMAL SUBSTRATE AND ZINC AND MANGANESE

Overview

The interaction of a divalent metal ion with a leaving 3' oxygen is a, central component of several proposed mechanisms of phosphoryl transfer., In support of this are recent kinetic studies showing that thiophilic, metal ions (e.g., Mn2+) stimulate the hydrolysis of compounds in which, sulfur takes the place of the leaving oxygen. To examine the structural, basis of this phenomenon, we have solved four crystal structures of, single-stranded DNA's containing either oxygen or sulfur at a 3'-bridging, position bound in conjunction with various metal ions at the 3'-5', exonucleolytic active site of the Klenow fragment (KF) of DNA polymerase I, from Escherichia coli. Two structures of normal ssDNA bound to KF in the, presence of Zn2+ and Mn2+ or Zn2+ alone were refined at 2.6- and 2.25-A, ... [(full description)]
