The YqgF domain of SPT6 proteins is homologous to the E.coli RuvC [1] but its putative catalytic site lacks the carboxylate side chains critical for coordinating magnesium ions that mediate phosphodiester bond-cleavage [2]
This entry represents the S1/OB-fold domain of Spt6. This domain has structural similarity to S1 domain but lacks the typical S1 binding cleft residues involved in nucleic acid binding [1], therefore, this domain in Spt6 may be involved in interacti ...
This entry represents the S1/OB-fold domain of Spt6. This domain has structural similarity to S1 domain but lacks the typical S1 binding cleft residues involved in nucleic acid binding [1], therefore, this domain in Spt6 may be involved in interactions with other partners.
