Figure 4.
Structural examination of wobble pairing with N^2,N^2-Me[2]G-modified DNA in Dpo4.A, overall structure of DNA and corresponding electron density observed in the active site of DMG-2 are shown. The orientation of bases observed in molecule A (B) and molecule B (C) of the DMG-2 structure is shown. D, overall structure of DNA and corresponding electron density observed in the active site of DMG-2 are shown. The orientation of bases observed in molecule A (E) and molecule B (F) of the DMG-2 structure is shown. In all panels, the 3F[o][]− 2F[c] map (gray mesh) for DNA bound in the DMG-2 structure is shown contoured to 1σ level (gray mesh) with the F[o][]− F[c] difference maps shown contoured to 3σ and −3σ for positive (red mesh) and negative (green mesh) density, respectively.
