A highly selective affinity labeling of T7 RNA polymerase with the o-formylphenyl ester of GMP and [α-32P]UTP was carried out. The site of the labeling was located using limited cleavages with hydroxylamine, bromine, N-chlorosuccinimide and cyanogene bromide and was identified as the Lys631 residue. Site-directed mutagenesis using synthetic oligonucleotides was used to substitute Lys631 by a Gly, Leu or Arg residue. Kinetic studies of the purified mutant enzymes showed alterations of their polymerizing activity. For the Lys → Gly mutant enzyme, anomalous template binding was observed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
