FAMILY

ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase large chain family

DESCRIPTION

Also known as RIR3_SALTY, nrdE. Provides the precursors necessary for DNA synthesis. Catalyzes the biosynthesis of deoxyribonucleotides from the corresponding ribonucleotides. R1E contains the binding sites for both substrates and allosteric effectors and carries out the actual reduction of the ribonucleotide. Tetramer of two alpha and two beta subunits.
