Figure 3. Comparison of the hPolι Active Site in Binary and
Ternary Complexes
(A) Top: close-up views of the hPolι
active site region in hPolι[A] binary (left) and hPolι[A.dTTP]
ternary (right) complexes. The fingers and palm domains and the
PAD are shown in yellow, blue, and green, respectively. The DNA
is colored gray, and the template dA and incoming dTTP are
shown in red. The putative Mg^2+ ions in the ternary complex
are shown in dark blue. The catalytic residues (D34, D126, and
E127), the residues apposed close to template dA (Q59, K60,
L62, V64, L78, S307, K309, and R347), and incoming dTTP (Y39,
T65, Y68, R71, and K214) are highlighted and labeled. Note that
template dA is in the anti conformation in the binary complex
but flips to the syn conformation in the ternary complex. Note
also that some of the amino acids, including Leu62, Val64, and
Arg71, change conformation in response to dTTP binding. Bottom:
simulated annealing F[o] − F[c] omit maps (contoured at
3.0σ) showing template dA in the anti conformation in the
binary complex (left) and in the syn conformation in the
ternary complex (right). In the ternary complex, dA makes a
Hoogsteen base pair with incoming dTTP, which remains in the
anti conformation.
(B) Top: close-up views of the hPolι
active site region in hPolι[G] binary (left) and
hPolι[G.dCTP] ternary (right) complexes. Note that template dG
is in the anti conformation in the binary complex but flips to
the syn conformation in the ternary complex. Bottom: simulated
annealing F[o] − F[c] omit maps (contoured at 3.0σ) showing
template dG in the anti conformation in the binary complex
(left) and in the syn conformation in the ternary complex
(right). In the ternary complex, dG makes a Hoogsteen base pair
with incoming dCTP, which remains in the anti conformation and
is likely protonated. Figure 3. Comparison of the hPolι
