Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information deletion of the basic loop in Escherichia coli RNase H inhibits but does not abolish activity. If the basic loop in Escherichia coli RNase H is inserted into an isolated inactive HIV-1 RNase H domain, Mn2+-dependent activity is partially restored Escherichia coli

Metals/Ions

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
Mg2+ two Mg2+ ions in the RNase H active site, required. A two-metal ion mechanism requires that metal ion A activates a water molecule as a nucleophile and moves towards ion B, bringing the nucleophile in close proximity to the scissile bond, while metal ion B destabilizes the substrate-enzyme interaction and lowers the energy barrier to product formation Homo sapiens
