Viral genome packaging terminase cleaves DNA using the canonical RuvC-like two-metal catalysis mechanism
Bacteriophages and large dsDNA viruses encode sophisticated machinery to translocate their DNA into a preformed empty capsid. An essential part of this machine, the large terminase protein, processes viral DNA into constituent units utilizing its nuclease activity. Crystal structures of the large te...
