Two Glu/Asp Residues Cooperatively Mediate an Early Step of ATP Hydrolysis in GHKL ATPases MutL and GyrB
GHKL ATPases share a unique Bergerat ATP-binding fold and regulate diverse biological processes through ATP-dependent conformational changes. An early step of ATP hydrolysis in this family has been attributed to a single highly conserved glutamate residue proposed to function as the general base. However, mutations of...
