T7 DNA POLYMERASE COMPLEXED TO DNA PRIMER/TEMPLATE,A NUCLEOSIDE TRIPHOSPHATE, AND ITS PROCESSIVITY FACTOR THIOREDOXIN
Overview
DNA polymerases change their specificity for nucleotide substrates with, each catalytic cycle, while achieving error frequencies in the range of, 10(-5) to 10(-6). Here we present a 2.2 A crystal structure of the, replicative DNA polymerase from bacteriophage T7 complexed with a, primer-template and a nucleoside triphosphate in the polymerase active, site. The structure illustrates how nucleotides are selected in a, template-directed manner, and provides a structural basis for a, metal-assisted mechanism of phosphoryl transfer by a large group of, related polymerases.
About this Structure
