Crystal structure of vaccinia virus thymidylate kinase bound to brivudin-5'-monophosphate

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 18971333

Function

[KTHY_VACCC] Poxvirus TMP kinase is able to phosphorylate dTMP, dUMP and also dGMP from any purine and pyrimidine nucleoside triphosphate. The large substrate specificity is explained by the presence of a canal connecting the edge of the dimer interface to the TMP base binding pocket, canal not found in the human homolog (By similarity).

About this Structure
