Crystal structure of a DNA polymerase III alpha-epsilon chimera
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23580545
Function
[DPO3E_ECOLI] DNA polymerase III is a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria. The epsilon subunit contain the editing function and is a proofreading 3'-5' exonuclease.
About this Structure
4gx8 is a 4 chain structure. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
