The crystal structure of a complex of Campylobacter jejuni dUTPase with substrate analogue sheds light on the mechanism and suggests the "basic module" for dimeric d(C/U)TPases.

The crystal structure of the dUTPase from the important gastric pathogen Campylobacter jejuni has been solved at 1.65 A spacing. This essential bacterial enzyme is the second representative of the new family of dimeric dUTPases to be structurally characterised. Members of this family have a novel al...
