The mechanism of DNA cytosine-5 methylation. Kinetic and mutational dissection of Hhai methyltransferase.
Kinetic and binding studies involving a model DNA cytosine-5-methyltransferase, M.HhaI, and a 37-mer DNA duplex containing a single hemimethylated target site were applied to characterize intermediates on the reaction pathway. Stopped-flow fluorescence studies reveal that cofactor S-adenosyl-l-methionine (AdoMet) and product S-adenosyl-l-homocysteine (AdoHcy) form similar rapidly reversible bin...
متن کاملSolubility engineering of the HhaI methyltransferase.
DNA methylation is involved in epigenetic control of numerous cellular processes in eukaryotes, however, many mechanistic aspects of this phenomenon are not yet understood. A bacterial prototype cytosine-C5 methyltransferase, M.HhaI, serves as a paradigm system for structural and mechanistic studies of biological DNA methylation, but further analysis of the 37 kDa protein is hampered by its ins...
متن کاملKinetic mechanism of isoprenylated protein methyltransferase.
The kinetic mechanism of the rod outer segment (ROS) isoprenylated protein methyltransferase was investigated. This S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet)-linked enzyme transfers methyl groups to carboxyl-terminal isoprenylated cysteine residues of proteins, generating methyl esters. The enzyme also processes simple substrates such as N-acetyl-S-farnesyl-L-cysteine (L-AFC). Initial studies showed tha...
متن کاملKinetic and catalytic properties of dimeric KpnI DNA methyltransferase.
KpnI DNA-(N(6)-adenine)-methyltransferase (KpnI MTase) is a member of a restriction-modification (R-M) system in Klebsiella pneumoniae and recognizes the sequence 5'-GGTACC-3'. It modifies the recognition sequence by transferring the methyl group from S-adenosyl-l-methionine (AdoMet) to the N(6) position of adenine residue. KpnI MTase occurs as a dimer in solution as shown by gel filtration and...
متن کاملKinetic mechanism of protein arginine methyltransferase 1.
Protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) are SAM-dependent enzymes that catalyze the mono- and dimethylation of peptidyl arginine residues. Although all PRMTs produce monomethyl arginine (MMA), type 1 PRMTs go on to form asymmetrically dimethylated arginine (ADMA), while type 2 enzymes form symmetrically dimethylated arginine (SDMA). PRMT1 is the major type 1 PRMT in vivo, thus it is the pri...
