Substrates and Products (Substrate)

Substrates Comment Substrates Organism Products Comment (Products) Rev. Reac.
additional information hydroxymethylated DNA binding activities of wild-type and mutant enzymes, the enzyme undergoes a conformational change from a substrate-free open form to a closed substrate-binding form stabilized by several salt bridges and probably involving Ser106 and Glu22 Tequatrovirus T4 ?
-
?
UDP-glucose + hydroxymethylated DNA Glu22 seems not to be responsible for activation of the nucleophilic attack, Ser106 and Glu311 probably form a salt bridge in the closed enzyme formation, Glu311 is probably involved in interaction with UDP-glucose, Arg236, Arg256 and Met231 are probably involved in interaction with the DNA Tequatrovirus T4 UDP + glycosylated hydroxymethylated DNA
