Application

Nucleoside deoxyribosyltransferase II has been used in a study that assessed its enzymatic synthesis with 2′-deoxyguanosine. Nucleoside deoxyribosyltransferase II has also been used in studies to investigate its molecular cloning, expression and specificity.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Enzymatic nucleoside synthesis is an attractive alternative to traditional chemical methods which require multiple chemical reactions and the use of chemicals that are both expensive and environmentally harmful. Class II Nucleoside Deoxyribosyltransferases exhibit multiple characteristics that make them suitable as biocatalysts for the synthesis of natural and nonnatural nucleosides. They are specific for 2′-deoxyribonucleosides, regioselective (N-1 glycosylation in pyrimidine and N-9 in purine), and stereoselective (forming only β-anomers).

Class II N-Deoxyribosyltranferases, DRTases, catalyze the transfer of a 2′-deoxyribosyl group between purines or pyrimidines. In the absence of an acceptor nucleobase, these enzymes display hydrolase activity, converting the nucleoside to its base and a deoxyribose. In lactobacilli species, Nucleoside Deoxyribosyltransferase enzymes are part of the nucleoside salvage pathway for DNA synthesis.

Suitability

Suitable for the enzymatic nucleoside synthesis.

Unit Definition

Nucleoside 2'-deoxyribosyltransferase (NDT) is used to synthesize unnatural 2'-deoxyribonucleosides, modified mostly on the heterocyclic base. Here we describe a strategy for improving 2,3-dideoxyribosyl(ddR) transfer activity of NDT by combining mutagenesis and in vivo selection in E. coli.

Synchrotron radiation sources have made impressive contributions to macromolecular crystallography. The delay in development of appropriate X-ray detectors has, however, been a significant limitation to their efficient use. New technologies, based on charge-coupled devices (CCDs), provide capabilities for faster, more
