Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase (Tdp1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of a, phosphodiester bond between a tyrosine residue and a DNA 3' phosphate. The, enzyme appears to be responsible for repairing the unique protein-DNA, linkage that occurs when eukaryotic topoisomerase I becomes stalled on the, DNA in the cell. The 1.69 A crystal structure reveals that human Tdp1 is a, monomer composed of two similar domains that are related by a, pseudo-2-fold axis of symmetry. Each domain contributes conserved, histidine, lysine, and asparagine residues to form a single active site., The structure of Tdp1 confirms that the protein has many similarities to, the members of the phospholipase D (PLD) superfamily and indicates a, similar catalytic mechanism. The structure also suggests how the unusual, protein-DNA substrate binds and provides insights about the nature of the, substrate in vivo.
