Using kinetic assays and X-ray crystallography, we identify an active-site mutation of a conserved guanine that abolishes catalysis without perturbing coenzyme binding. Our results provide evidence that coenzyme function requires a specific nucleobase to interact with the nucleophile of the cleavage reaction. Essential role of an active-site guanine in glmS ribozyme catalysis.,Klein DJ, Been MD, Ferre-D'Amare AR J Am Chem Soc. 2007 Dec 5;129(48):14858-9. Epub 2007 Nov 9.
