additional information the purified recombinant hCAP1a gene product, hCAP1a, exhibits both mRNA 5'-triphosphatase and mRNA guanylyltransferase activities. The N-terminal 213 amino acid fragment containing a tyrosine-specific protein phosphatase motif catalyzes the RNA 5'-triphosphatase activity, and the C-terminal 369 amino acid fragment exhibits the mRNA guanylyltransferase activity. The recombinant protein hCAP1a releases [32P]Pi from [gamma-32P]triphosphate-terminated to RNA, but it is less active with [gamma-32P]GTP, indicating that it recognize the RNA chain Homo sapiens ?

additional information the purified recombinant hCAP1b gene product, hCAP1b, shows RNA 5'-triphosphatase activity, but neither enzyme-GMP covalent complex formation nor cap structure formation is detected.

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution the nucleotide sequences of hCAP1a and hCAP1b are identical from the 5' flanking region to codon 503, but are entirely different thereafter. The N-terminal portion of the predicted amino acid sequence contains the motif of the tyrosine specific protein phosphatase active site, [LIVMF]-H-C-x(2)-G-x(3)-[STC]-[STAG]-x-[LIVMFY]. The C-terminal portion of the protein is highly homologous to the known mRNA guanylyltransferases and contains all the motifs, i.e. motifs I, III, IIIa, IV, V, VI, and P, which are commonly observed in viral and cellular mRNA guanylyltransferases except that the motif VI is missing in hCAP1b Homo sapiens
malfunction deletion mutant analysis of hCAP1a shows that the N-terminal 213 amino acid fragment containing a tyrosine-specific protein phosphatase motif catalyzes the RNA 5'-triphosphatase activity, and the C-terminal 369 amino acid fragment exhibits the mRNA guanylyltransferase activity. When RNA 5'-triphosphatase activity is assayed using [gamma-32 P]pppG-RNA, mutant His-hCAP1a(1-213) releases [32P]phosphate, while no [32P]phosphate is released by mutant hCAP1a(229-597). Furthermore, the N-terminal half molecule, hCAP1a(1-213) exhibits no NTPase activity, indicating that this half molecule still retains the specificity for RNA Homo sapiens
additional information the active site for RNA 5'-triphosphatase resides in the N-terminal 213 amino acids fragment, whereas mRNA guanylyltransferase activity resides in the C-terminal 289 amino acid fragment Homo sapiens
physiological function recombinant enzyme hCAP1b shows RNA 5'-triphosphatase activity, but neither enzyme-GMP covalent complex formation nor cap structure formation is detected Homo sapiens
physiological function the mammalian mRNA capping enzyme is a bifunctional enzyme containing RNA 5'-triphosphatase and mRNA guanylyl-transferase activities in a single polypeptide Homo sapiens
