The reaction mechanism of the lyase reaction involves a transient covalent enzyme-DNA intermediate in the form of a Schiff base connecting Lys72 of the enzyme with the 5'-dRP moiety. The Schiff base intermediate is resolved via a beta-elimination reaction, initiated by abstraction of a C2'-H atom from the 5'-deoxyribose phosphate (5'-dRP) moiety | ? | - |

malfunction | three Pol beta enzymes modified at position 72 with aminooxy or hydrazinyl analogues of lysine form transient covalent bonds with the 5'-dRP moiety of the damaged DNA, in the form of an oxime or hydrazone, respectively. Both types of enzyme DNA intermediates are ultimately resolved by the lyase activities of each of the modified enzymes. The formation and resolution of these E-S complexes proceed with diminished kinetics, and with an altered pH profile compared to wild-type. Comparison of base excision repair (BER) reaction with wild-type and modified Pol beta enzymes: while the wild-type enzyme performs BER very efficiently, the BER activity of the three modified enzymes is greatly reduced. The overall BER efficiency of our modified Pol beta enzymes reflects predominantly their ability to remove the 5'-dRP group, the modified proteins demonstrate poor lyase activity | Homo sapiens |
additional information | study of the lyase activity of human DNA polymerase beta using analogues of the intermediate Schiff base complex | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | DNA polymerase beta (Pol beta) participates in mammalian base excision repair (BER). The enzyme has a two-domain architecture, reflecting its dual functionality. The polymerase activity, which replaces damaged nucleosides removed during an initial excision process, is within the C-terminal 31 kDa domain, while the N-terminal 8 kDa domain participates in a lyase function, working to remove a 5'-deoxyribose phosphate (5'-dRP) moiety from the damaged DNA substrate | Homo sapiens |
