AP site structural determinants for Fpg specific recognition.
The binding of Escherichia coli and Lactococcus lactis Fapy-DNA glyosylase (Fpg) proteins to DNA containing either cyclic or non-cyclic abasic (AP) site analogs was investigated by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and by footprinting experiments. We showed that the reduced AP site is the best substrate analog for the E.coli and L.lactis enzymes ( K Dapp = 0.26 and 0.5 nM, respectivel...
متن کاملStructural Determinants for Specific Recognition
DNA glycosylases catalyze the scission of the N-glycosyl bond linking either a damaged or mismatched base to the DNA sugar phosphate backbone. T4 endonuclease V is a glycosylase/apurinic (AP) lyase that is specific for UV light-induced cis-syn pyrimidine dimers. As a proposed transition state analog/inhibitor for glycosylases, a phosphoramidite derivative containing a pyrrolidine residue has be...
متن کاملStructural insights into abasic site for Fpg specific binding and catalysis: comparative high-resolution crystallographic studies of Fpg bound to various models of abasic site analogues-containing DNA
Fpg is a DNA glycosylase that recognizes and excises the mutagenic 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) and the potentially lethal formamidopyrimidic residues (Fapy). Fpg is also associated with an AP lyase activity which successively cleaves the abasic (AP) site at the 3' and 5' sides by betadelta-elimination. Here, we present the high-resolution crystal structures of the wild-type and the P1G defective muta...
متن کاملActivation of Mg(2+)-dependent DNAzymes based on AP site-containing triplex for specific melamine recognition.
Based on melamine binding-triggered triplex formation and subsequent activation of Mg(2+)-dependent DNAzymes, a novel strategy for DNAzyme regulation was proposed and developed for melamine recognition.
متن کاملDeterminants for DNA-binding site recognition by the glucocorticoid receptor.
The glucocorticoid receptor binds with high specificity to glucocorticoid response elements, discriminating them from other closely related binding sites. Three amino acids in the recognition alpha-helix of the DNA-binding domain of the receptor are primarily responsible for this specific DNA binding activity. In this study we analyze in detail how these residues determine the specific DNA bind...
