Structural highlights 1eoo is a 4 chain structure. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Activity: Type II site-specific deoxyribonuclease, with EC number 3.1.21.4 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [T2E5_ECOLX] Recognizes the double-stranded sequence GATATC and cleaves after T-3. Publication Abstract from PubMed Two new high-resolution cocrystal structures of EcoRV endonuclease bound to DNA show that a large variation in DNA-bending angles is sampled in the ground state binary complex. Together with previous structures, these data reveal a contiguous series of protein conformational states delineating a specific trajectory for the induced-fit pathway. Rotation of the DNA-binding domains, together with movements of two symmetry-related helices binding in the minor groove, causes base unstacking at a key base-pair step and propagates structural changes that assemble the active sites. These structures suggest a complex mechanism for DNA bending that depends on forces generated by interacting protein segments, and on selective neutralization of phosphate charges along the inner face of the bent double helix.
