Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
gene rnc, overexpression of wild-type and mutants in strain BL21(DE3) as His-tagged proteins Escherichia coli

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
E117D site-directed mutagenesis, mutant exhibits normal homodimeric behaviour, can bind substrates but shows highly reduced hydrolysis activity compared to the wild-type enzyme Escherichia coli
E117Q site-directed mutagenesis, mutant exhibits normal homodimeric behaviour, can bind substrates but is unable to cleave the substrates Escherichia coli

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
Mn2+ at concentrations above 5 mM, mutant E117D is not inhibited, inhibition of the wild-type enzyme by excess Mn2+ cannot be relieved by high concentrations of Mg2+, inhibition mechanism Escherichia coli
additional information no inhibition by high concentrations of Mg2+ Escherichia coli

Metals/Ions

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
Co2+ can partially substitute for Mg2+ or Mn2+ Escherichia coli
Mg2+ required Escherichia coli
Mn2+ can substitute for Mg2+, showing slightly higher activity with the wild-type enzyme, highly activates the mutant E117D, no activity with mutant E117Q Escherichia coli
additional information no activity of mutant E117Q with Ca2+, Ni2+, Co2+, or Sr2+ Escherichia coli
Ni2+ can partially substitute for Mg2+ or Mn2+ Escherichia coli
