Abstract excerpt
The functional significance of the conserved motif 'YxGG/A', located between the 3'-5' exonuclease and polymerization domains of eukaryotic-type DNA polymerases, has been studied by site-directed mutagenesis in phi29 DNA polymerase. Single substitutions at this region were obtained, and 11 phi29 DNA polymerase mutant derivatives were overproduced in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity. Nine mutants...
