4.6.1.16 H133A site-directed mutagenesis, crystal structure determination Aeropyrum pernix
4.6.1.16 K179A site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant removes the BHB intron from the anticodon loop and the D-loop. However, AFU-CSL K179A can not remove the BHL intron correctly Archaeoglobus fulgidus
4.6.1.16 K44A site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows a severe loss of enzyme activity, crystal structure determination Aeropyrum pernix
4.6.1.16 additional information introduction of the Crenarchaea specific loop, CSL, into AFU-EndA enhances its intron-cleaving activity irrespective of the position or motif of the intron Archaeoglobus fulgidus

4.6.1.16 additional information Aeropyrum pernix Aeropyrum pernix expresses precursor-tRNAs with canonical or non-canonical introns at various positions. APE splicing endonuclease removes both types of introns, including the non-canonical introns, without any nucleotide modification. E.g. three tRNAThr species are transcribed and subsequently matured to functional tRNAs. During maturation, introns in two of them are cleaved from standard and non-standard positions, APE-EndA has broad substrate specificity, overview ?
