Characterization of bacteriophage T4 regA protein-nucleic acid interactions.
The bacteriophage T4 regA protein is a translational repressor of a group of T4 early mRNAs. We have characterized the binding of regA protein to polynucleotides and to specific RNAs. Binding to nucleic acids was monitored by the quenching of the intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence of regA protein. regA protein exhibited differential affinities for the polynucleotides examined, with the order of ...
متن کاملNucleic acid synthesis in bacteriophage SPO2c 1 -infected Bacillus subtilis.
The synthesis of host macromolecules was shut off very slowly and incompletely by bacteriophage SPO2c(1). No change in the rate of incorporation of radioactive precursors into protein and ribonucleic acid (RNA) could be detected after infection, and the rate of incorporation of thymidine was increased only slightly. The relative proportions of phage and host species of nucleic acids at various ...
متن کاملNucleic Acid Economy in Bacteria Infected with Bacteriophage T2
1. The phosphorus content per infective particle of isolated bacteriophage T2 has been redetermined. It does not exceed 1.8 to 2.2 x 10(-11) microg. The equivalent amount of DNA has been defined in terms of several analytical methods and taken as a unit of measurement of intrabacterial DNA. 2. The DNA of E. coli contains guanine, adenine, cytosine, and thymine in approximately equal amounts, bu...
متن کاملIon-mediated nucleic acid helix-helix interactions.
Salt ions are essential for the folding of nucleic acids. We use the tightly bound ion (TBI) model, which can account for the correlations and fluctuations for the ions bound to the nucleic acids, to investigate the electrostatic free-energy landscape for two parallel nucleic acid helices in the solution of added salt. The theory is based on realistic atomic structures of the helices. In monova...
متن کاملMetal-mediated base pairing within the simplified nucleic acid GNA.
Hydroxypyridone and pyridopurine homo- and hetero-base pairs have been investigated in the context of duplex GNA (glycol nucleic acid). Phosphoramidites for automated GNA solid phase synthesis were synthesized economically in a few steps starting from commercially available enantiopure glycidol. Similar to their behavior in DNA, the hydroxypyridone and pyridopurine homo-base pairs display a met...
