Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information expression of N-terminal amino acids 1-253 gives a protein defective in overall ligation but retaining the ability to form EpA intermediate, bind to pRNA and transfer AMP to pRNA, albeit less efficiently than wild-type ligase. Expression of amino acids 255-381 results in a protein that fails to form a detectable protein-RNA complex and does not support overall ligation or RNA circularization Methanothermobacter thermautotrophicus

additional information intramolecular ligation of 5'-PO4 single-strand RNA to form a covalently closed circular RNA molecule through ligase-adenylylate and RNA-adenylylate intermediates AppRNA. At the optimal temperature of 65°C, AppRNA is predominantly ligated to a circular product. At 35°C, phosphodiester bond formation is suppressed and the majority of the AppRNA is deadenylylated Methanothermobacter thermautotrophicus ?
