Ribonucleotide reductase activity was increased in extracts of bone marrow from rabbits treated with methyl phenyldiazenecarboxylate, a hemolytic agent which results in an increased number of reticulocytes in blood. The enzyme has been partially purified from bone marrow of rabbits treated with this agent. Enzymatic reduction of cytosine ribonucleotides requires a dithiol, magnesium ions, and A...
Cullin4, Ddb1, and Cdt2 are core subunits of the ubiquitin ligase complex CRL4 Cdt2 , which controls genome stability by targeting Spd1 for degradation during DNA replication and repair in fission yeast. Spd1 has an inhibitory effect on ribonucleotide reductase (RNR), the activity of which is required for deoxynucleotide (dNTP) synthesis. Failure to degrade Spd1 in CRL4 Cdt2 defective mutants l...
Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) catalyzes the reduction of ribonucleotides to deoxyribonucleotides. Class I RNRs are composed of two homodimeric proteins, alpha2 and beta2. The class Ia E. coli beta2 contains dinuclear, antiferromagnetically coupled iron centers and one tyrosyl free radical, Y122*/beta2. Y122* acts as a radical initiator in catalysis. Redox-linked conformational changes may acco...
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) supply the 2'-deoxyribonucleotide building blocks for DNA synthesis in mammalian cells and for herpes viruses. The viral-encoded RNRs have unique protein sequences that differ from mammalian enzyme primary structures. Selective inhibition of a viral RNR might provide an approach to new anti-herpes agents with minimal effects on the mammalian host RNRs. This revi...
Lactococcus lactis contains an operon with the genes (nrdD and nrdG) for a class III ribonucleotide reductase. Strict anaerobic growth depends on the activity of these genes. Both were sequenced, cloned, and overproduced in Escherichia coli. The corresponding proteins, NrdD and NrdG, were purified close to homogeneity. The amino acid sequences of NrdD (747 residues, 84.1 kDa) and NrdG (199 resi...
Microtubule nucleation on the centrosome and the fungal equivalent, the spindle pole body (SPB), is activated at the onset of mitosis. We previously reported that mitotic extracts prepared from Xenopus unfertilized eggs convert the interphase SPB of fission yeast into a competent state for microtubule nucleation. In this study, we have purified an 85-kDa SPB activator from the extracts and iden...
Ribonucleotide reduction is the only pathway for de novo synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides in extant organisms. This chemically demanding reaction, which proceeds via a carbon-centered free radical, is catalyzed by ribonucleotide reductase (RNR). The mechanism has been deemed unlikely to be catalyzed by a ribozyme, creating an enigma regarding how the building blocks for DNA were synthesized at...
The structure of the protein-solvent interface is the subject of controversy in theoretical studies and requires direct experimental characterization. Three proteins with known atomic resolution crystal structure (lysozyme, Escherichia coli thioredoxin reductase, and protein R1 of E. coli ribonucleotide reductase) were investigated in parallel by x-ray and neutron scattering in H2O and D2O solu...
UNLABELLED The trxB2 gene, which is annotated as a thioredoxin reductase, was found to be essential for growth of Lactococcus lactis in the presence of oxygen. The corresponding protein (TrxB2) showed a high similarity with Bacillus subtilis YumC (E value = 4.0E-88), and YumC was able to fully complement the ΔtrxB2 mutant phenotype. YumC represents a novel type of ferredoxin (flavodoxin) reduct...
Herpes simplex virus 2 caused a genital ulcer, and a secondary herpetic whitlow appeared during acyclovir therapy. The secondary and recurrent whitlow isolates were acyclovir-resistant and temperature-sensitive in contrast to a genital isolate. We identified the ribonucleotide reductase mutation responsible for temperature-sensitivity by deep-sequencing analysis.
