Mammalian DNA ligases. Serological evidence for two separate enzymes.
Mammalian cells contain two DNA ligase activities with different chromatographic properties, referred to as DNA ligase I and II. The major ligase activity present in calf thymus cell extracts, DNA ligase I, has been purified 1000-fold. After repeated injections of this enzyme with complete Freund's adjuvant into a rabbit, antibodies were induced that inhibit DNA ligase I from calf, human, mouse...
متن کامل19 DNA Ligases
DNA ligases are Mg++-dependent enzymes that catalyze the formation of phosphodiester bonds at single-strand breaks in double-stranded DNA (for review and main references up to 1992, see Engler and Richardson 1982; Lindahl and Barnes 1992). The first step in the reaction is the formation of a covalent enzyme/adenylate intermediate. DNA ligases from eukaryotes, archaea, and viruses employ ATP as ...
متن کاملMammalian HECT ubiquitin-protein ligases: biological and pathophysiological aspects.
Members of the HECT family of E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases are characterized by a C-terminal HECT domain that catalyzes the covalent attachment of ubiquitin to substrate proteins and by N-terminal extensions of variable length and domain architecture that determine the substrate spectrum of a respective HECT E3. Since their discovery in 1995, it has become clear that deregulation of distinct HE...
متن کاملMitochondrial DNA ligases of Trypanosoma brucei.
The mitochondrial DNA of Trypanosoma brucei, termed kinetoplast DNA or kDNA, consists of thousands of minicircles and a small number of maxicircles catenated into a single network organized as a nucleoprotein disk at the base of the flagellum. Minicircles are replicated free of the network but still contain nicks and gaps after rejoining to the network. Covalent closure of remaining discontinui...
متن کاملCRL Ubiquitin Ligases and DNA Damage Response
Cullin/RING ubiquitin ligases (CRL) comprise the largest subfamily of ubiquitin ligases. CRLs are involved in cell cycle regulation, DNA replication, DNA damage response (DDR), development, immune response, transcriptional regulation, circadian rhythm, viral infection, and protein quality control. One of the main functions of CRLs is to regulate the DDR, a fundamental signaling cascade that mai...
