Abstract
|
 |
|
The Escherichia coli Ada protein repairs methyl phosphotriesters in DNA by
direct, irreversible methyl transfer to one of its own cysteine residues. The
methyl-transfer process appears to be autocatalyzed by coordination of the
acceptor residue, Cys-69, to a tightly bound zinc ion. Upon methyl transfer, Ada
acquires the ability to bind DNA sequence-specifically and thereby to induce
genes that confer resistance to methylating agents. The solution structure of an
N-terminal 10-kDa fragment of Ada, which retains zinc binding and DNA methyl
phosphotriester repair activities, was determined using multidimensional
heteronuclear nuclear magnetic resonance techniques. The structure reveals a
zinc-binding motif unlike any observed thus far in transcription factors or
zinc-containing enzymes and provides insight into the mechanism of
metalloactivated DNA repair.
