Abstract. Ribonucleotide reduction is the only known biological means for de novo production of deoxyribonucleotides, the building blocks of DNA. These are produced from ribonucleotides, the building blocks of RNA, and the direction of this reaction has been taken to support the idea that, in evolution, RNA preceded DNA as genetic material. However, an understanding of the evolutionary relationships...
Abstract. Catalytically important free radicals in enzymes are generally formed at highly specific sites, but the specificity is often lost in point mutants where crucial residues have been changed. Among the transient free radicals earlier found in the Y122F mutant of protein R2 in Escherichia coli ribonucleotide reductase after reconstitution with Fe2+ and O2, two were identified as tryptophan radicals...
