Catalysis by members of the RNase H superfamily of enzymes is generally believed to require only two Mg 2+ ions that are coordinated by active-site carboxylates. By examining the catalytic process of Bacillus halodurans RNase H1 in crystallo, however, we found that the two canonical Mg 2+ ions and an additional K + failed to align the nucleophilic water for RNA cleavage ...
