Abstract excerpt
Substitution of Tyr for His-426 of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A results in a mutant protein with reduced ADP-ribosyltransferase activity (M. J. Wick and B. H. Iglewski, J. Bacteriol. 170:5385-5388, 1988). To investigate the role of His-426 in enzymatic activity, oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis was used to construct mutant proteins encoding Ala, Glu, Gly, Lys, or Pro at position 426. The effect of these...
