| Abstract | RecJ-like proteins belonging to the DHH family have been proposed to function as oligoribonucleases and 3′-phosphoadenosine 5′-phosphate (pAp) phosphatases in bacteria and archaea, which do not have Orn (oligoribonuclease) and CysQ (pAp phosphatase) homologs. In this study, we analyzed the biochemical and physiological characterization of the RecJ-like protein TTHA0118 from Thermus thermophilus HB8. TTHA0118 had high enzymatic activity as an oligodeoxyribonucleotide- and oligoribonucleotide-specific exonuclease and as pAp phosphatase. The polarity of degradation was 5′ to 3′, in contrast to previous reports about Bacillus subtilis NrnA, a RecJ-like protein. TTHA0118 preferentially hydrolyzed short oligodeoxyribonucleotides and oligoribonucleotides, whereas the RecJ exonuclease from T. thermophilus HB8 showed no such length dependence on oligodeoxyribonucleotide substrates. An insertion mutation of the ttha0118 gene led to growth reduction in minimum essential medium. Added 5′-mononucleotides, nucleosides, and cysteine increased growth of the ttha0118 mutant in minimum essential medium. The RecJ-like protein Mpn140 from Mycoplasma pneumoniae M129, which cannot synthesize nucleic acid precursors de novo, showed similar biochemical features to TTHA0118. Furthermore, B. subtilis NrnA also hydrolyzed oligo(deoxy)ribonucleotides in a 5′-3′ direction. These results suggested that these RecJ-like proteins act in recycling short oligonucleotides to mononucleotides and in controlling pAp concentrations in vivo. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
