'''Crystal Structure of the Polymerase Domain from Mycobacterium tuberculosis Ligase D'''<br />


==Overview==
==Crystal Structure of the Polymerase Domain from Mycobacterium tuberculosis Ligase D==
Non homologous end-joining (NHEJ)-mediated repair of DNA double-strand breaks in prokaryotes requires Ku and a specific multidomain DNA ligase (LigD). We present crystal structures of the primase/polymerisation domain (PolDom) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis LigD, alone and complexed with nucleotides. The PolDom structure combines the general fold of the archaeo-eukaryotic primase (AEP) superfamily with additional loops and domains that together form a deep cleft on the surface, likely used for DNA binding. Enzymatic analysis indicates that the PolDom of LigD, even in the absence of accessory domains and Ku proteins, has the potential to recognise DNA end-joining intermediates. Strikingly, one of the main signals for the specific and efficient binding of PolDom to DNA is the presence of a 5'-phosphate group, located at the single/double-stranded junction at both gapped and 3'-protruding DNA molecules. Although structurally unrelated, Pol lambda and Pol mu, the two eukaryotic DNA polymerases involved in NHEJ, are endowed with a similar capacity to bind a 5'-phosphate group. Other properties that are beneficial for NHEJ, such as the ability to generate template distortions and realignments of the primer, displayed by Pol lambda and Pol mu, are shared by the PolDom of bacterial LigD. In addition, PolDom can perform non-mutagenic translesion synthesis on termini containing modified bases. Significantly, ribonucleotide insertion appears to be a recurrent theme associated with NHEJ, maximised in this case by the deployment of a dedicated primase, although its in vivo relevance is unknown.

== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/LIGD_MYCTU LIGD_MYCTU] With Ku forms a non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) repair enzyme which repairs DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) with reduced fidelity. Recognizes, processes and reseals DSBs, including repairs on incompatible DSB which require 3'-resection, gap filling and ligation. Anneals the 3' overhanging strands from opposing breaks to form a gapped intermediate, which then can be extended in trans by using the termini as primers for extension of the annealed break. Binds to the recessed 5'-phosphate moiety of the downstream DNA strand forming a stable synaptic complex even when the 3'-protruding ends of the template DNA strands are not complementary. Has numerous activities; gap filling copies the template strand, and prefers a 5'-phosphate in the gap and rNTPS (PubMed:17174332, PubMed:17947582), DNA-directed DNA or RNA polymerase on 5'-overhangs, terminal transferase (extending ssDNA or blunt dsDNA in a non-templated fashion, preferentially with rNTPs), DNA-dependent RNA primase (synthesizes short RNAs on unprimed closed ssDNA) and 3'- to 5'-exonuclease on ssDNA (PubMed:15499016). Isolated Pol domain (and presumably the holoenzyme) is able to form complexes between 2 noncompatible protruding 3'-ends DNA ends via microhomologous DNA strands, in a end-bridging function to which it adds a templated nucleotide (PubMed:17947582). Minimal primer length is 2 nucleotides (PubMed:21255731).<ref>PMID:15499016</ref> <ref>PMID:17174332</ref> <ref>PMID:17947582</ref> <ref>PMID:21255731</ref>  The preference of the polymerase domain for rNTPs over dNTPs may be advantageous in dormant cells, where the dNTP pool is limiting. In conjunction with endogenous or Mycobacterium phage Omega Ku (AC Q853W0) can reconstitute NHEJ in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
