Enzyme-Substrate Binding Kinetics Indicate That Photolyase Recognizes an Extrahelical Cyclobutane Thymidine Dimer.
Escherichia coli DNA photolyase is a DNA-repair enzyme that repairs cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) that are formed on DNA upon exposure of cells to ultraviolet light. The light-driven electron-transfer mechanism by which photolyase catalyzes the CPD monomerization after the enzyme-substrate complex has formed has been studied extensively. However, much less is understood about how photoly...
متن کاملDifferences in dimer-dimer interaction
The three-dimensional X-ray structure of a recombinant human mitochondrial manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) (chain length 198 residues) was determined by the method of molecular replacement using the related structure of MnSOD from Thermus thermophilus as a search model. This tetrameric human MnSOD crystallizes in space group P2,2,2 with a dimer in the asymmetric unit (Wagner, U.G., Werbe...
متن کاملA crystal structure of a dimer of the antibiotic ramoplanin illustrates membrane positioning and a potential Lipid II docking interface.
The glycodepsipeptide antibiotic ramoplanin A2 is in late stage clinical development for the treatment of infections from Gram-positive pathogens, especially those that are resistant to first line antibiotics such as vancomycin. Ramoplanin A2 achieves its antibacterial effects by interfering with production of the bacterial cell wall; it indirectly inhibits the transglycosylases responsible for...
متن کاملDimer Problems
The dimer model is a statistical mechanical model on a graph, where configurations consist of perfect matchings of the vertices. For planar graphs, expressions for the partition function and local statistics can be obtained using determinants. The planar dimer model can be used to model a number of other statistical mechanical processes such as the planar Ising model and free fermions. It is al...
متن کاملDNA target sequence identification mechanism for dimer-active protein complexes
Sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins must quickly and reliably localize specific target sites on DNA. This search process has been well characterized for monomeric proteins, but it remains poorly understood for systems that require assembly into dimers or oligomers at the target site. We present a single-molecule study of the target-search mechanism of protelomerase TelK, a recombinase-like p...
