Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 2.1Å Ligands: BRU Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function NFI_THEMA Selectively cleaves double-stranded DNA at the second phosphodiester bond 3' to a deoxyinosine leaving behind the intact lesion on the nicked DNA. Acts in DNA repair. In vitro, can also cleave single-stranded substrates with inosine, double-stranded DNA with apurinic sites, or DNA sites with uracil or a mismatched base. When present in molar excess, two protein molecules can bind to the same DNA substrate and effect cleavage of both strands (in vitro). Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMed Endonuclease V (EndoV) initiates a major base-repair pathway for nitrosative deamination resulting from endogenous processes and increased by oxidative stress from mitochondrial dysfunction or inflammatory responses. We solved the crystal structures of Thermotoga maritima EndoV in complex with a hypoxanthine lesion substrate and with product DNA. The PYIP wedge motif acts as a minor groove-damage sensor for helical distortions and base mismatches and separates DNA strands at the lesion. EndoV incises DNA with an unusual offset nick 1 nucleotide 3' of the lesion, as the deaminated adenine is rotated approximately 90 degrees into a recognition pocket approximately 8 A from the catalytic site. Tight binding by the lesion-recognition pocket in addition to Mg(2+) and hydrogen-bonding interactions to the DNA ends stabilize the product complex, suggesting an orderly recruitment of downstream proteins in this base-repair pathway.
