Single-stranded DNA-binding Proteins
The emergence of DNA as the predominant hereditary material of life has necessitated the evolution of proteins whose sole function is the maintenance and care of these vital molecules. In a typical cell, there is a wide array of proteins with specialized functions in DNA metabolism that allow the cell to maintain and replicate its genome. In order to copy or make repairs to DNA, the double heli...
متن کاملBinding of the dimeric Deinococcus radiodurans single-stranded DNA binding protein to single-stranded DNA.
Deinococcus radiodurans single-stranded (ss) DNA binding protein (DrSSB) originates from a radiation-resistant bacterium and participates in DNA recombination, replication, and repair. Although it functions as a homodimer, it contains four DNA binding domains (OB-folds) and thus is structurally similar to the Escherichia coli SSB (EcoSSB) homotetramer. We examined the equilibrium binding of DrS...
متن کاملInteraction of a folded chromosome-associated protein with single-stranded DNA-binding protein of Escherichia coli, identified by affinity chromatography.
A single-stranded DNA-binding protein (SSB) affinity column was prepared by optimizing the coupling of Escherichia coli single-stranded DNA-binding protein to Affi-Gel 10. The bound SSB retained its ability to specifically bind single-stranded DNA. When nuclease-treated cell extracts were incubated with the SSB beads overnight at 4 degrees C, a major protein of Mr = 25,000 was bound. At shorter...
متن کاملDNA-binding properties of T4 UvsY recombination mediator protein: polynucleotide wrapping promotes high-affinity binding to single-stranded DNA
To carry out homologous recombination events in the cell, recombination proteins must be able to recognize and form presynaptic filaments on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) in the presence of a vast excess of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). Therefore recombination machineries stringently discriminate between ssDNA and dsDNA lattices. Recent single-molecule studies of bacteriophage T4 recombination pro...
متن کاملFluorescent single-stranded DNA-binding protein from Plasmodium falciparum as a biosensor for single-stranded DNA
Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) is a product of many cellular processes that involve double-stranded DNA, for example during DNA replication and repair, and is formed transiently in many others. Measurement of ssDNA formation is fundamental for understanding many such processes. The availability of a fluorescent biosensor for the determination of single-stranded DNA provides an important route to a...
