STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF THE SULFOLOBUS SOLFATARICUS MCM PROTEIN N- TERMINAL DOMAIN
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 18417534
Function
[MCM_SULSO] Presumptive replicative helicase. Has ATPase and DNA helicase activities. The latter preferentially melts 5'-tailed oligonucleotides and is stimulated by the SSB protein (single-stranded DNA binding protein). The active ATPase sites in the MCM ring are formed through the interaction surfaces of two neighboring subunits such that a critical structure of a conserved arginine finger motif is provided in trans relative to the ATP-binding site of the Walker A box of the adjacent subunit. The helicase function is proposed to use a partially sequential mode of ATP hydrolysis; the complex appears to tolerate multiple catalytically inactive subunits.[1]
