Biochemical Engineering Perspective on cGAS: From Enzyme Discovery to Potential Industrial Application. [PDF]
This review examines the structural and enzymatic properties of cyclic GMP‐AMP synthase, including substrate promiscuity, homologs, and engineered variants. In addition, it evaluates potential expression systems for large‐scale enzyme production and analyzes reaction and purification strategies for the synthesis of cyclic dinucleotides to connect ...

Initiator tRNA genes template the 3' CCA end at high frequencies in bacteria. [PDF]
BackgroundWhile the CCA sequence at the mature 3' end of tRNAs is conserved and critical for translational function, a genetic template for this sequence is not always contained in tRNA genes.

Initiator tRNA genes template the 3\u27 CCA end at high frequencies in bacteria. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: While the CCA sequence at the mature 3\u27 end of tRNAs is conserved and critical for translational function, a genetic template for this sequence is not always contained in tRNA genes.

How do nematodes transfer phosphorylcholine to carbohydrates? [PDF]
An unusual aspect of the biology of nematodes is the attachment of phosphorylcholine (PC) to carbohydrate. The attachment appears to play an important role in nematode development and, in some parasitic species, in immunomodulation.

Sequence motifs that distinguish ATP(CTP) : tRNA nucleotidyl transferases from eubacterial poly(A) polymerases [PDF]
ATP(CTP):tRNA nucleotidyl transferases, tRNA maturing enzymes found in all organisms, and eubacterial poly(A) polymerases, enzymes involved in mRNA degradation, are so similar that until now their biochemical functions could not be distinguished by their

THIOL GROUPS IN DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID NUCLEOTIDYLTRANSFERASE [PDF]
1. The inhibitory effects of iodoacetate, iodoacetamide, p-hydroxymercuribenzoate and sarkomycin were studied in a partially purified preparation of deoxyribonucleic acid nucleotidyltransferase from Landschutz ascites-tumour cells. All of these agents inhibited the activity of the enzyme, and it was shown that the inhibition exerted by the last three ...

Molecular mechanisms of template-independent RNA polymerization by tRNA nucleotidyltransferases
The universal 3'-terminal CCA sequence of tRNA is built and/or synthesized by the CCA-adding enzyme, CTP:(ATP) tRNA nucleotidyltransferase. This RNA polymerase has no nucleic acid template, but faithfully synthesizes the defined CCA sequence on the 3 ...

Primase-polymerases are a functionally diverse superfamily of replication and repair enzymes [PDF]
Until relatively recently, DNA primases were viewed simply as a class of proteins that synthesize short RNA primers requisite for the initiation of DNA replication.
