Conformationally Dynamic Radical Transfer within Ribonucleotide Reductase.

Journal of the American Chemical Society - 22 Nov 2017

Greene Brandon L, Taguchi Alexander T, Stubbe JoAnne, Nocera Daniel G

Abstract excerpt

Ribonucleotide reductases (RNR) catalyze the reduction of nucleotides to deoxynucleotides through a mechanism involving an essential cysteine based thiyl radical. In the E. coli class 1a RNR the thiyl radical (C439•) is a transient species generated by radical transfer (RT) from a stable diferric-tyrosyl radical cofactor located >35 Å away across the α2:β2 subunit interface. RT is facilitated by sequential...
