NTP binding site

An NTP binding site is a type of binding site found in nucleoside monophosphate (NMP) kinases, N can be adenosine or guanosine.

A P-loop is one of the structural motifs common for nucleoside triphosphate (NTP) binding sites, it interacts with the bound nucleotide's phosphoryl groups.

Nucleotide binding will cause conformational changes in the protein because the P-loop will bend.

NTP binding sites play a role in poliovirus RNA replication.

[2] Additionally, a method known as computational alanine mutagenesis, has been used to find the key portions within the amino acid sequences that majorly characterize a particular NTP binding site; these regions within the sequence are conserved.
