A cryptic third active site in cyanophycin synthetase creates primers for polymerization
Cyanophycin synthetase CphA1 polymerizes Asp and Arg into the nitrogen reserve polymer cyanophycin using two active sites. Sharon et al. show CphA1 has a cryptic 3rd active site that cleaves cyanophycin into primers for self-sufficient biosynthesis.
