Crystal structure and mutational analysis of Mycobacterium smegmatis FenA highlight active site amino acids and three metal ions essential for flap endonuclease and 5′ exonuclease activities

Mycobacterium smegmatis FenA is a nucleic acid phosphodiesterase with flap endonuclease and 5′ exonuclease activities. The 1.8 Å crystal structure of FenA reported here highlights as its closest homologs bacterial FEN-family enzymes ExoIX, the Pol1 exonuclease domain and phage T5 Fen. Mycobacterial...
