Mad2 is a relatively small, single-domain protein that shows some prion-like properties. A transiently formed heterodimer of the N1-Mad2 and N2-Mad2 conformers is converted into the wild-type N2-Mad2 homodimer. The N2-Mad2 solution structure has been determined using a monomeric mutant.

Functional evidence for active site location of tetrameric thymidylate synthase X at the interphase of three monomers. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 101 (2004) 7252-7257. Homo-oligomeric enzymes with active sites formed at the interface of three or more monomers are rare. In this case, each monomer is shown to contribute a catalytically essential residue, suggesting that the ThyX tetramer may have evolved by oligomerisation of 'inactive' monomers.

Recent genetic studies reveal that the products of five novel genes, tusABCDE, function in 2-thiouridine modification of tRNA wobble positions. The TusBCD complex is a dimer of heterotrimers of homologous subunits, related to hypothetical protein YchN [32], of which only TusD retains the catalytic cysteine residue.

The monomeric and trimeric dUTPases both contain the same five characteristic sequence motifs, but in a different order. This example of evolution from the trimeric to the monomeric enzyme is contrary to the commonly observed trend for efficient genome usage in viruses, as the monomeric dUTPase needs more coding sequence than a trimeric one.
