additional information | the RNR reaction involves replacement by hydrogen of the hydroxyl group on the 2'-carbon of the nucleoside diphosphate substrate. This chemically difficult replacement occurs by a free-radical mechanism. The enzyme employs a heterobinuclear MnIV/FeIII cluster for radical initiation. In essence, the MnIV ion of the cluster functionally replaces the Y radical of the conventional class I RNR. The Ct beta2 protein also autoactivates by reaction of its reduced MnII/FeII metal cluster with O2. In this reaction, an unprecedented MnIV/FeIV intermediate accumulates almost stoichiometrically and decays by one-electron reduction of the FeIV site. This reduction is mediated by the near-surface residue, Y222, overview | Escherichia coli | ? | - |
