Abstract excerpt
Uracil DNA glycosylase inhibitor (Ugi), a protein of 9.4 kDa consists of a five-stranded antiparallel beta sheet flanked on either side by single alpha helices, forms an exclusive complex with uracil DNA glycosylases (UDGs) that is stable in 8M urea. We report on the mutational analysis of various structural elements in Ugi, two of which (hydrophobic pocket and the beta1 edge) establish key interactions with...
