'''STRUCTURE-BASED IDENTIFICATION OF THE BIOCHEMICAL FUNCTION OF A HYPOTHETICAL PROTEIN FROM METHANOCOCCUS JANNASCHII:MJ0226'''
===STRUCTURE-BASED IDENTIFICATION OF THE BIOCHEMICAL FUNCTION OF A HYPOTHETICAL PROTEIN FROM METHANOCOCCUS JANNASCHII:MJ0226===




==Overview==
<!--
Almost half of the entire set of predicted genomic products from Methanococcus jannaschii are classified as functionally unknown hypothetical proteins. We present a structure-based identification of the biochemical function of a protein with an as yet unknown function from a M. jannaschii gene, Mj0226. The crystal structure of Mj0226 protein determined at 2.2 A resolution reveals that the protein is a homodimer and each monomer folds into an elongated alpha/beta structure of a new fold family. Comparisons of Mj0226 protein with protein structures in the database, however, indicate that one part of the protein is homologous to some of the nucleotide-binding proteins. Biochemical analysis shows that Mj0226 protein is a novel nucleotide triphosphatase that can efficiently hydrolyze nonstandard nucleotides such as XTP to XMP or ITP to IMP, but not the standard nucleotides, in the presence of Mg2+ or Mn2+ ions.
