Abstract excerpt
T4 polynucleotide kinase/phosphatase (Pnkp) exemplifies a family of bifunctional enzymes with 5'-kinase and 3'-phosphatase activities that function in nucleic acid repair. The N-terminal kinase domain belongs to the P-loop phosphotransferase superfamily. The kinase is distinguished by a tunnel-like active site with separate entrances on opposite sides of the protein for the NTP phosphate donor and a 5'-OH...
