Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
E343Q site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant is inactive, dTTP hydrolysis and DNA unwinding activities are abolished, but the mutant shows increased single-stranded DNA binding affinity compared to the wild-type enzyme, overview Escherichia phage T7

dTTP + H2O Escherichia phage T7 mechanisms of DNA-dependent and-independent dTTP hydrolysis by the gene 4 protein of bacteriophage T7 differ in the pathways by which these reactions are catalyzed. In the presence of dTTP, gene 4 protein monomers assemble as a ring that binds single-stranded DNA and couples the hydrolysis of dTTP to unidirectional translocation and the unwinding of duplex DNA, overview dTDP + phosphate
