Escherichia coli nucleoside diphosphate kinase does not act as a uracil-processing DNA repair nuclease.
Escherichia coli nucleoside diphosphate kinase (Ndk) catalyzes ATP-dependent synthesis of ribo- and deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates from the cognate diphosphate precursor. Recently, the Ndk polypeptide was reported to be a multifunctional base excision repair nuclease that processed uracil residues in DNA by acting sequentially as a uracil-DNA glycosylase inhibitor protein (Ugi)-sensitive ura...
متن کاملValyl-tRNA Synthetase Gene of Escherichia coli
We report the subcloning and characterization of the molecular elements necessary for the expression of the Escherichia coli valS gene which encodes the enzyme valyl-tRNA synthetase (EC 6.1.1.9). The valS gene was subcloned from the Clarke-Carbon plasmid pLC26-22 by genetic complementation of the valS temperature-sensitive mutant strain, AB4 141. The protein-coding region of the valS struct...
متن کاملCharacterization of a thermosensitive Escherichia coli aspartyl-tRNA synthetase mutant.
The Escherichia coli tls-1 strain carrying a mutated aspS gene (coding for aspartyl-tRNA synthetase), which causes a temperature-sensitive growth phenotype, was cloned by PCR, sequenced, and shown to contain a single mutation resulting in substitution by serine of the highly conserved proline 555, which is located in motif 3. When an aspS fragment spanning the codon for proline 555 was transfor...
متن کاملEscherichia coli DNA photolyase stimulates uvrABC excision nuclease in vitro.
Pyrimidine dimers are the major photoproducts produced in cellular DNA upon UV irradiation. In Escherichia coli there are dark and photorepair mechanisms that eliminate the dimers from DNA and prevent their lethal and mutagenic effects. To determine whether these repair mechanisms act cooperatively or competitively in repairing DNA, we investigated the effects upon one another of DNA photolyase...
متن کاملMapping contacts between Escherichia coli alanyl tRNA synthetase and 2' hydroxyls using a complete tRNA molecule.
A dual-specific derivative of yeast tRNA(Phe) is described whose features facilitate structure-function studies of tRNAs. This tRNA has been made in three different bimolecular forms that allow modifications to be easily introduced into any position within the molecule. A set of deoxynucleotide substituted versions of this tRNA has been created and used to examine contacts between tRNA and Esch...
