The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Lactobacillus leichmannii, is similar to class II ribonucleoside-diphosphate reductase (cf. EC 1.17.4.1). However, it is specific for the triphosphate versions of its substrates. The enzyme contains an adenosylcobalamin cofactor that is involved in generation of a transient thiyl (sulfanyl) radical on a cysteine residue. This radical attacks the substrate, forming a ribonucleotide 3'-radical, followed by water loss to form a ketyl (alpha-oxoalkyl) radical. The ketyl radical is reduced to 3'-keto-deoxynucleotide concomitant with formation of a disulfide anion radical between two cysteine residues. A proton-coupled electron-transfer from the disulfide radical to the substrate generates a 3'-deoxynucleotide radical, and the final product is formed when the hydrogen atom that was initially removed from the 3'-position of the nucleotide by the thiyl radical is returned to the same position. The disulfide bridge is reduced by the action of thioredoxin. cf. EC 1.1.98.6, ribonucleoside-triphosphate reductase (formate).

RNR2Tso2 is more prevalent than RNR2A throughout development and in most organs, suggesting that RNR2Tso2 is the predominant RNR2 in Arabidopsis thaliana. RNR2Tso2 levels are more varied than RNR2A levels in response to environmental changes and exposure to chemicals

mutants in subunit R2 isoform tso2 show reduced deoxyribonucleotide triphosphate levels and developmental defects including callus-like floral organs and fasciated shoot apical stems. R2 isoforms tso2 single and tso2/rnr2a double mutants are more sensitive to UV-C light and double mutant seedlings exhibit increased DNA damage, massive programmed cell death, and release of transcriptional gene silencing
