single-stranded DNA | Dgt preparations lacking DNA are able to bind single-stranded DNA with high affinity. DNA binding positively affects the activity of the enzyme. dGTPase activity displays sigmoidal (cooperative) behavior without DNA but hyperbolic (Michaelis-Menten) kinetics in its presence, consistent with a specific lowering of the apparent Km for dGTP | Escherichia coli |

structure at 3.1 A resolution. The protein hexamer contains two molecules of single-stranded DNA, causing significant conformational changes in the enzyme, including in the catalytic site of the enzyme | Escherichia coli |
Protein Variants | Comment | Organism |
