Popis: Sterile alpha motif (SAM) and Histidine-Aspartate (HD)-domain containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) is a triphosphohydrolase that converts deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) into deoxyribonucleosides and triphosphates. SAMHD1 exists in multiple states. The monomer and apo- or GTP-bound dimer are catalytically inactive. Binding of dNTP at allosteric site 2 (AS2), adjacent to the GTP-binding, allosteric site 1 (AS1), induces formation of tetramer, the catalytically active form. We have developed an enzyme kinetic assay, tailored to control specific dNTP binding at each site, allowing us to determine the kinetic binding parameters of individual dNTPs at both the AS2 and catalytic site for all possible combinations of dNTP binding at both sites. Here, we show that the apparent Km values of dNTPs at AS2 vary, in order of dCTP
