A phosphate binding pocket is a key determinant of exo- versus endo-nucleolytic activity in the SNM1 nuclease family
The SNM1 nucleases which help maintain genome integrity are members of the metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) structural superfamily. Their conserved MBL-β-CASP-fold SNM1 core provides a molecular scaffold forming an active site which coordinates the metal ions required for catalysis. The features that deter...
