Abstract excerpt
The active site sequence of T4 thioredoxin, Cys-Val-Tyr-Cys, has been modified in two positions to Cys-Gly-Pro-Cys to mimic that of Escherichia coli thioredoxin. The two point mutants Cys-Gly-Tyr-Cys and Cys-Val-Pro-Cys have also been constructed. The mutant proteins have similar reaction rates with T4 ribonucleotide reductase as has the wild-type T4 thioredoxin. Mutant T4 thioredoxins with Pro instead of Tyr at...
