Reversible, Long-Range Radical Transfer in E. coli Class Ia Ribonucleotide Reductase

Ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) catalyze the conversion of nucleotides (NDPs or NTPs where N = C, U, G, or A) to 2′-deoxynucleotides (dNDPs or dNTPs)[superscript 1] and are responsible for controlling the relative ratios and absolute concentrations of cellular dNTP pools. For this reason, RNRs play...

description Ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) catalyze the conversion of nucleotides (NDPs or NTPs where N = C, U, G, or A) to 2′-deoxynucleotides (dNDPs or dNTPs)[superscript 1] and are responsible for controlling the relative ratios and absolute concentrations of cellular dNTP pools. For this reason, RNRs play a major role in ensuring the fidelity of DNA replication and repair. RNRs are found in all organisms and are classified based on the metallocofactor used to initiate catalysis,[superscript 1] with the class Ia RNRs requiring a diferric-tyrosyl radical (Y•) cofactor.
