Abstract excerpt
Dna2 is a multifunctional enzyme in yeast that possesses endonuclease activity well suited to remove RNA-DNA primers of Okazaki fragments, raising the question of whether endonuclease activity is essential for in vivo Dna2 function. Systematic site-directed mutations of amino acid residues in Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA2 conserved in the central region of many eukaryotic DNA2 homologs allowed us to identify...
