additional information | replacement of residues 100-117 in the human enzyme by the corresponding part of the Escherichia coli enzyme, positions 66-87, leading to the chimera HEH with human enzyme N-terminus, Escherichia coli flexible loop, human enzyme C-terminus. Replacement of the region in the Escherichia coli enzyme by either the human loop element, representing the reciprocal experiment, chimera EHE, or by the Bacillus stearothermophilus part, resulting in chimera EBE. Whereas the wild-type enzymes incorporate the complete CCA sequence, the chimeric enzymes EHE, HEH and EBE show a reduced activity and add only 2 C residues to the tRNA substrate. The chimeras EHE, HEH show a 45-to 145fold reduced kcat for A-incorporation. The corresponding KM values are consistent with the KM values of the loop donor enzymes | Escherichia coli |

More | class II enzymes found in bacteria and eukaryotes carry a flexible loop in their catalytic core required for switching the specificity of the nucleotide binding pocket from CTP- to ATP-recognition, with the existence of conserved loop families. Loop replacements within families do not interfere with enzymatic activity. Modeling experiments suggest specific interactions of loop positions with important elements of the protein, forming a lever-like structure | Homo sapiens |
