STRUCTURE OF BINASE MUTANT HIS 101 ASN

Overview

Members of the microbial guanyl-specific ribonuclease family catalyse the, endonucleolytic cleavage of single-stranded RNA in a two-step reaction, involving transesterification to form a 2',3'-cyclic phosphate and its, subsequent hydrolysis to yield the respective 3'-phosphate. The, extracellular ribonuclease from Bacillus intermedius (binase, RNase Bi), shares a common mechanism for RNA hydrolysis with mammalian RNases. Two, catalytic residues in the active site of binase, Glu72 and His101, are, thought to be involved in general acid-general base catalysis of RNA, cleavage. Using site-directed mutagenesis, binase mutants were produced, containing amino acid substitutions H101N and H101T and their catalytic, properties towards RNA, poly(I), poly(A), GpC and guanosine 2',3'-cyclic, ...
