lüll The kinetic and chemical mechanism of high-fidelity DNA polymerases Johnson KABiochim Biophys Acta 2010[May]; 1804 (5): 1041-8This review summarizes our current understanding of the structural, kinetic and thermodynamic basis for the extraordinary accuracy of high-fidelity DNA polymerases. High-fidelity DNA polymerases, such as the enzyme responsible for the replication of bacteriophage T7 DNA, discriminate against similar substrates with an accuracy that approaches one error in a million base pairs while copying DNA at a rate of approximately 300 base pairs per second. When the polymerase does make an error, it stalls, giving time for the slower proofreading exonuclease to remove the mismatch so that the overall error frequency approaches one in a billion. Structural analysis reveals a large change in conformation after nucleotide binding from an open to a closed state. Kinetic analysis has shown that the substrate-induced structural change plays a key role in the discrimination between correct and incorrect base pairs by governing whether a nucleotide will be retained and incorporated or rapidly released.|Animals[MESH]|Codon/*genetics[MESH]|DNA-Directed DNA Polymerase/*chemistry/*metabolism[MESH]|DNA/*metabolism[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Kinetics[MESH] |
