Mutational analysis of vaccinia virus topoisomerase identifies residues involved in DNA binding.

Vaccinia DNA topoisomerase catalyzes the cleavage and re-joining of DNA strands through a DNA-(3'-phosphotyrosyl)-enzyme intermediate formed at a specific target sequence, 5'-(C/T)CCTT downward arrow. The 314 aa protein consists of three protease-resistant structural domains demarcated by protease-sensitive interdomain segments referred to as the bridge and the hinge. The bridge is defined by t...

Mutational analysis of the vaccinia virus E3 protein defines amino acid residues involved in E3 binding to double-stranded RNA.

Alanine-substitution mutations were targeted to 14 amino acid residues within the double-stranded (ds) RNA binding motif (dsRBM) of the vaccinia virus E3 protein. Substitutions at six positions--Glu-124, Phe-135, Phe-148, Lys-167, Arg-168, and Lys-171--caused significant reductions in dsRNA binding. These six residues are conserved in the two dsRBMs for which structural information is available...

Domain structure of vaccinia DNA ligase.

The 552 amino acid vaccinia virus DNA ligase consists of three structural domains defined by partial proteolysis: (i) an amino-terminal 175 amino acid segment that is susceptible to digestion with chymotrypsin and trypsin; (ii) a protease-resistant central domain that contains the active site of nucleotidyl transfer (Lys-231); (iii) a protease-resistant carboxyl domain. The two protease-resista...

Chlorella virus DNA ligase: nick recognition and mutational analysis.

Chlorella virus PBCV-1 DNA ligase seals nicked DNA substrates consisting of a 5'-phosphate-terminated strand and a 3'-hydroxyl-terminated strand annealed to a bridging DNA template strand. The enzyme discriminates at the DNA binding step between substrates containing a 5'-phosphate versus a 5'-hydroxyl at the nick. Mutational analysis of the active site motif KxDGxR (residues 27-32) illuminates...

Mutational analysis of conserved residues in HhaI DNA methyltransferase.

HhaI DNA methyltransferase belongs to the C5-cytosine methyltransferase family, which is characterized by the presence of a set of highly conserved amino acids and motifs present in an invariant order. HhaI DNA methyltransferase has been subjected to a lot of biochemical and crystallographic studies. A number of issues, especially the role of the conserved amino acids in the methyltransferase a...
