Fig. 7From: Structural similarities and functional differences clarify evolutionary relationships between tRNA healing enzymes and the myelin enzyme CNPasePolynucleotide kinase activity assay. PNK reaction mixtures of a ScTrl1 PNK/CPDase, b BfPNK/CPDase, and c ScTrl1 CPDase. The reactions were carried out in the presence of Mg2+, with ATP as phosphate donor and with either A20, dA20, or both as acceptors. Both ScPNK/CPDase and BfPNK/CPDase display PNK activity with a clear substrate preference. The ScCPDase domain alone is expectedly inactive.
