A Modern Mode of Activation for Nucleic Acid Enzymes
Through evolution, enzymes have developed subtle modes of activation in order to ensure the sufficiently high substrate specificity required by modern cellular metabolism. One of these modes is the use of a target-dependent module (i.e. a docking domain) such as those found in signalling kinases. Upon the binding of the target to a docking domain, the substrate is positioned within the catalyti...
متن کاملInvestigating the Co-Adsorption Behavior of Nucleic-Acid Base (Thymine and Cytosine) and Melamine at Liquid/Solid Interface
The co-adsorption behavior of nucleic-acid base (thymine; cytosine) and melamine was investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) technique at liquid/solid (1-octanol/graphite) interface. STM characterization results indicate that phase separation happened after dropping the mixed solution of thymine-melamine onto highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface, while the hetero-compon...
متن کاملSolid-state NMR studies of nucleic acid components
Recent applications of solid-state NMR to the characterisation of nucleic acid systems are reviewed. Developments in NMR methodology and DFT-based first-principles calculations have led to the emergence of “NMR crystallography”, where solid-state NMR provides information on local structure and dynamics that complements information on periodic ordering and overall structure provided by tradition...
متن کاملPicomolar Fingerprinting of Nucleic Acid Nanoparticles Using Solid-State Nanopores.
Nucleic acid nanoparticles (NANPs) are an emerging class of programmable structures with tunable shape and function. Their promise as tools for fundamental biophysics studies, molecular sensing, and therapeutic applications necessitates methods for their detection and characterization at the single-particle level. In this work, we study electrophoretic transport of individual ring-shaped and cu...
متن کاملInfluence of nucleic acid base aromaticity on substrate reactivity with enzymes acting on single-stranded DNA.
Stacking between aromatic amino acids and nucleic acid bases may play an important role in the interaction of enzymes with nucleic acid substrates. In such circumstances, disruption of base aromaticity would be expected to decrease enzyme activity on the modified substrates. We have examined the requirement for DNA base aromaticity of five enzymes that act on single-stranded DNA, T4 polynucleot...
