Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) cells Homo sapiens

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
LigIII in complex with 22-mer nicked DNA, hanging drop vapor diffusion method, using 1.8 M ammonium sulfate and 0.1 M sodium acetate (pH 5.6) Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
K323E the mutant has significantly reduced blunt end DNA ligation activity (87% decrease in the initial velocity of blunt end DNA ligation compared to wild type enzyme), but has very little effect on DNA nick joining activity, the mutation selectively blocks zinc finger function Homo sapiens
K323E/E265K the mutations do not restore efficient blunt end DNA joining activity Homo sapiens
R327E the mutant is nearly devoid of blunt end joining activity, mimicking a deletion of the zinc finger Homo sapiens
R327E/D262R the mutations do not restore efficient blunt end DNA joining activity Homo sapiens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function besides repairing nuclear DNA, ligase III is the only mitochondrial DNA ligase in which it functions in DNA repair and replication Homo sapiens
