Structural highlights
Disease[TYDP1_HUMAN] Defects in TDP1 are the cause of spinocerebellar ataxia autosomal recessive with axonal neuropathy (SCAN1) [MIM:607250]. SCAN1 is an autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia (ARCA) associated with peripheral axonal motor and sensory neuropathy, distal muscular atrophy, pes cavus and steppage gait as seen in Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy. All affected individuals have normal intelligence.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] Function[TYDP1_HUMAN] DNA repair enzyme that can remove a variety of covalent adducts from DNA through hydrolysis of a 3'-phosphodiester bond, giving rise to DNA with a free 3' phosphate. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of dead-end complexes between DNA and the topoisomerase I active site tyrosine residue. Hydrolyzes 3'-phosphoglycolates on protruding 3' ends on DNA double-strand breaks due to DNA damage by radiation and free radicals. Acts on blunt-ended double-strand DNA breaks and on single-stranded DNA. Has low 3'exonuclease activity and can remove a single nucleoside from the 3'end of DNA and RNA molecules with 3'hydroxyl groups. Has no exonuclease activity towards DNA or RNA with a 3'phosphate.[6] [7] [8] [9] [10] Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedTyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase I (Tdp1) is involved in the repair of DNA lesions created by topoisomerase I in vivo. Tdp1 is a member of the phospholipase D (PLD) superfamily of enzymes and hydrolyzes 3'-phosphotyrosyl bonds to generate 3'-phosphate DNA and free tyrosine in vitro. Here, we use synthetic 3'-(4-nitro)phenyl, 3'-(4-methyl)phenyl, and 3'-tyrosine phosphate oligonucleotides to study human Tdp1. Kinetic analysis of human Tdp1 (hTdp1) shows that the enzyme has nanomolar affinity for all three substrates and the overall in vitro reaction is diffusion-limited. Analysis of active-site mutants using these modified substrates demonstrates that hTdp1 uses an acid/base catalytic mechanism. The results show that histidine 493 serves as the general acid during the initial transesterification, in agreement with hypotheses based on previous crystal structure models. The results also argue that lysine 495 and asparagine 516 participate in the general acid reaction, and the analysis of crystal structures suggests that these residues may function in a proton relay. Together with previous crystal structure data, the new functional data provide a mechanistic understanding of the conserved histidine, lysine and asparagine residues found among all PLD family members.
