Stereochemical analysis of the specificity of pancreatic RNAse with polyformycin as substrate: differentiation of the transphosphorylation and hydrolysis reactions

Stereochemical analysis of the specificity of pancreatic RNAse with polyformycin as substrate: differentiation of the transphosphorylation and hydrolysis reactions

D C Ward et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1969 Feb.

Abstract

A stereochemical analysis of the substrate and inhibitor specificities of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A is presented. A scheme is proposed in which the binding specificity for this protein-nucleic acid interaction is rationalized in terms of a simple system of H-bonds. The functional groups that govern substrate binding for transphosphorylation and hydrolysis, respectively, are considered and differentiated, and predictions are offered concerning the interaction of presumptive substrates with RNase.
