Abstract excerpt
Klenow-DNA complex is known to undergo a rate-limiting, protein conformational transition from an 'open' to 'closed' state, upon binding of the 'correct' dNTP at the active site. In the 'closed' state, Mg(2+) mediates a rapid chemical step involving nucleophilic displacement of pyrophosphate by t...
