additional information site-directed mutagenesis experiments are described demonstrating the participation of Cys96 and Cys208 in the two-base reaction mechanism of the enzyme. The construction of N-terminal-truncated or C-terminal-truncated enzymes shows that the characteristic N-terminal amino acid extension of 20 residues is not involved in its activation by the nucleotide precursor Escherichia coli
