Abstract excerpt
Two highly conservative residues, Val67 and Gln101, in adenylate kinase are located in the hydrophobic region putatively involved in binding of the adenine ring of AMP. We have performed polymerase chain reaction-based random mutagenesis of the two residues using recombinant chicken muscle adenylate kinase cDNA as a template. The synthetic oligonucleotide primers contained A,G,C,T-mixed bases in the codons...
