Mutation | Location of mutation in Oac | Basis of selection for mutagenesis |
---|---|---|
SG 52-53 | TM II | Part of conserved motif FFiSG |
R 62 | Loop 3 | Positively charged amino acid in cytoplasmic loop. Shows some level of conservation with homologous acetyltransferases. |
R 73 | Loop 3 | Positively charged amino acid in cytoplasmic loop. Shows some level of conservation with homologous acetyltransferases. |
RR 75-76 | Loop 3 | Positively charged amino acid R75 shows some level of conservation. R76 is highly conserved and belongs to motif RIfPAL. |
FP 78-79 | TM III | Part of conserved motif RIfPAL. |
C 84 | TM III | To investigate if it forms disulphide bonds with other cysteine residues in Oac. |
RK 110-111 | Loop 4 | Positively charged amino acid in periplasmic loop. Not conserved in location; thus mutated to determine if amino acid charge was important to position. |
S 114 | Loop 4 | Neutral amino acid in periplasmic loop. Not conserved in location; thus mutated to determine if amino acid charge was important to position. |
GS 138-139 | TM IV | Part of conserved motif NGsLWT |
WT 141-142 | TM IV | Part of conserved motif NGsLWT |
GR 269-270 | Loop 9 | Shows some level of conservation with homologous acetyltransferases. Present in a cytoplasmic loop |
SYG 274-276 | TM IX | Part of conserved motif SYGxY |
FPV 282-284 | TM IX | Part of conserved motif FPVQQ |
D 333 | Loop 11 | Negatively charged amino acid in cytoplasmic loop. Not conserved in location; thus mutated to determine if amino acid charge was important to position. |
