Common name: methylated-DNA[protein]-cysteine S-methyltransferase
Reaction: DNA (containing 6-O-methylguanine) + protein L-cysteine = DNA (without 6-O-methylguanine) + protein S-methyl-L-cysteine
Systematic name: DNA-6-O-methylguanine:[protein]-L-cysteine S-methyltransferase
Comments: This protein is involved in the repair of alkylated DNA. It acts only on the alkylated DNA (cf. EC 3.2.2.20 DNA-3-methyladenine glycosidase I and EC 3.2.2.21 DNA-3-methyladenine glycosidase II). This enzyme catalyses only one turnover and therefore is not strictly catalytic.

Common name: dCTP deaminase (dUMP-forming)
Reaction: dCTP + 2 H2O = dUMP + diphosphate + NH3
Systematic name: dCTP aminohydrolase (dUMP-forming)
Comments: Requires Mg2+. Is highly specific for dCTP as substrate as dCMP, CTP, CDP, CMP, cytosine or deoxycytosine are not deaminated.

Common name: protein-synthesizing GTPase
Reaction: GTP + H2O = GDP + phosphate
Other name(s): elongation factor (EF); initiation factor (IF); peptide-release or termination factor
Systematic name: GTP phosphohydrolase (mRNA-translation-assisting)
Comments: This enzyme comprises a family of proteins involved in prokaryotic as well as eukaryotic protein synthesis. In the initiation factor complex, it is IF-2b (98 kDa) that binds GTP and subsequently hydrolyses it in prokaryotes. In eukaryotes, it is eIF-2 (150 kDa) that binds GTP. In the elongation phase, the GTP-hydrolysing proteins are the EF-Tu polypeptide of the prokaryotic transfer factor (43 kDa), the eukaryotic elongation factor EF-1α (53 kDa), the prokaryotic EF-G (77 kDa), the eukaryotic EF-2 (70-110 kDa) and the signal recognition particle that play a role in endoplasmic reticulum protein synthesis (325 kDa). EF-Tu and EF-1α catalyse binding of aminoacyl-tRNA to the ribosomal A-site, while EF-G and EF-2 catalyse the translocation of peptidyl-tRNA from the A-site to the P-site. GTPase activity is also involved in polypeptide release from the ribosome with the aid of the pRFs and eRFs.

Systematic name: (R,S)-2-haloacid dehalogenase (configuration-inverting)
Comments: Dehalogenates both (S)- and (R)-2-haloalkanoic acids to the corresponding (R)- and (S)-hydroxyalkanoic acids, respectively, with inversion of configuration at C-2. The enzyme from Pseudomonas sp. 113 acts on 2-haloalkanoic acids whose carbon chain lengths are five or less.
