Figure S1. Mycobacterial AdnAB. The amino acid sequences of M. smegmatis (Ms) AdnA and
AdnB are aligned to each other. The N-terminal motor domains are aligned with the sequence of
the E. coli (Ec) UvrD helicase. The ATPase/helicase motifs are denoted in boxes and named
according to Lee and Yang (2006). The amino acids at the ATPase active site and DNA-binding
site of UvrD that are conserved in AdnA or AdnB are highlighted in yellow. The C-terminal
nuclease domains of AdnA and AdnB contain counterparts of the three active site motifs of the
RecB nuclease (shaded in gray). Amino acids in the nuclease motifs of AdnAB that were subjected
to alanine scanning are denoted by |. Positions of side chain identity/similarity in all of the aligned
proteins are indicated by •. Gaps in the alignments are denoted by –.

Figure S2. pH profile of AdnAB dsDNA exonuclease. Reaction mixtures (10 µl) containing 20
mM Tris buffer (either Tris-acetate pH 4.5 to 7.0 or Tris-HCl pH 7.5 to 9.5), 2 mM MgCl2, 1 mM
ATP, 200 ng linear pUC19 (SmaI-digested), and AdnAB (10 ng AdnB) were incubated for 5 min at
37˚C. The reaction products were analyzed by electrophoresis through a 0.7% native agarose gel
and visualized by staining with ethidium bromide. The positions and sizes (kbp) of linear DNA
markers are indicated on the right.

Figure S3. Stimulation of ATP hydrolysis by ssDNA. Reaction mixtures (10 µl) containing 20
mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 1 mM [γ32P]ATP, 1 mM MgCl2, AdnAB (20 ng AdnB), and 24mer ssDNA
oligonucleotide (5’-GCCCTGCTGCCGACCAACGAAGGT) as specified were incubated for 10 min
at 37˚C. 32Pi release is plotted as function of the amount of ssDNA added. An apparent Km of 1 µM
24mer DNA was calculated in Prism by nonlinear regression curve fitting of the data.

Figure S4. Divalent cation requirements for AdnAB ssDNase activity. (A) Metal specificity. Reaction mixtures (10 µl) containing 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 0.1 µM 5’ 32P-labeled 24-mer DNA, 1 mM ATP, AdnAB (7 ng AdnB), and 2 mM of the indicated divalent cation (as the chloride salt) were incubated for 5 min at 37°C. Divalent cation was omitted from a control reaction in lane –. (B) Metal mixing. Reaction mixtures (10 µl) containing 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 0.1 µM 5’ 32P-labeled 24-mer DNA, 1 mM ATP, AdnAB (7 ng AdnB), 2 mM MgCl2, and 2 mM of the indicated divalent cation were incubated for 5 min at 37°C. (C) Manganese dependence. Reaction mixtures (10 µl) containing 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 0.5 mM DTT, 0.1 µM 5’ 32P-labeled 24-mer DNA, either no nucleotide or 1 mM ATP, AdnAB (10 ng AdnB), and MnCl2 as specified were incubated for 5 min at 37˚C.

Figure S5. Isolated AdnB and AdnA subunits. The AdnB and AdnA proteins were produced
singly in E. coli as His10Smt3 fusions and purified from soluble bacterial lysates by serial Ni-
agarose and DEAE-Sephacel chromatography, followed by Ulp1 cleavage, and isolation of the tag-
free Adn polypeptides after a second round of Ni-agarose chromatography. The recombinant
polypeptides were mixed with sedimentation standards catalase (native size 248 kDa; a
homotetramer of a 62 kDa polypeptide), BSA (66 kDa) and cytochrome c (12 kDa). The mixtures
were analyzed by zonal velocity sedimentation in a 15-30% glycerol gradient (see Experimental
Procedures). Aliquots (15 µl) of the odd-numbered gradient fractions were analyzed by SDS-
PAGE. Panel A shown the sedimentation profile of AdnB, which comprises a discrete monomeric
peak on the “heavy” side of BSA. Panel B shows the sedimentation profile of AdnA, which consists
of a mixture of monomeric and oligomeric species (in fractions embraced by the arrows). The
sedimentation profile of AdnB alone is shown in C (top panel), wherein aliquots (15 µl) of the odd-
numbered fractions were analyzed by SDS-PAGE. The ATPase activity profile in shown in the
bottom panel of C. Reaction mixtures (10 µl) containing 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 0.5 mM MnCl2,
0.1 mM [α32P]ATP, 1 µg salmon sperm DNA, and 2 µl of the indicated gradient fractions were
incubated for 60 min at 37˚C. The extents of 32P-ADP formation were determined by TLC.
