EPSTEIN-BARR VIRUS URACIL-DNA GLYCOSYLASE IN COMPLEX WITH UGI FROM PBS-2

Overview

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human gamma-herpesvirus. Within its 86 open, reading frame containing genome, two enzymes avoiding uracil incorporation, into DNA can be found: uracil triphosphate hydrolase and uracil-DNA, glycosylase (UNG). The latter one excises uracil bases that are due to, cytosine deamination or uracil misincorporation from double-stranded DNA, substrates. The EBV enzyme belongs to family 1 UNGs. We solved the, three-dimensional structure of EBV UNG in complex with the uracil-DNA, glycosylase inhibitor protein (Ugi) from bacteriophage PBS-2 at a, resolution of 2.3 A by X-ray crystallography. The structure of EBV UNG, encoded by the BKRF3 reading frame shows the excellent global structural, conservation within the solved examples of family 1 enzymes. Four out of, the ...
