Cleavage of stem-and-loop structure DNA by bleomycin. Reaction on the bacteriophage G4 origin of complementary strand synthesis.
The cleavage by bleomycin-Fe(II) complex in the presence of dithiothreitol of 3'-or 5'-end-labeled DNA from the region of the bacteriophage G4 origin of complementary strand synthesis was investigated by using the DNA-sequencing technique. Bleomycin cleaved a single-stranded DNA substrate preferentially at inverted repeat sequences, which potentially form stem-and-loop structures, while it clea...
متن کاملConditional coupling of leading-strand and lagging-strand DNA synthesis at bacteriophage T4 replication forks.
Eight proteins encoded by bacteriophage T4 are required for the replicative synthesis of the leading and lagging strands of T4 DNA. We show here that active T4 replication forks, which catalyze the coordinated synthesis of leading and lagging strands, remain stable in the face of dilution provided that the gp44/62 clamp loader, the gp45 sliding clamp, and the gp32 ssDNA-binding protein are pres...
متن کاملA DNA fragment from the origin of single-strand to double-strand DNA replication of bacteriophage fd.
A specific complex is formed between fd DNA, Escherichia coli DNA unwinding protein, and RNA polymerase (EC 2.7.7.6; nucleosidetriphosphate:RNA nucleotidyltransferase) during the first steps in the conversion of the single-stranded viral DNA to the double-stranded replicative form. In this complex a unique DNA fragment of about 120 nucleotides is protected against nuclease digestion. Both the r...
متن کاملRole of bacteriophage T7 DNA primase in the initiation of DNA strand synthesis.
Bacteriophage T7 DNA primase (gene-4 protein, 66,000 daltons) enables T7 DNA polymerase to initiate the synthesis of DNA chains on single-stranded templates. An initial step in the process of chain initiation is the formation of an oligoribonucleotide primer by T7 primase. The enzyme, in the presence of natural SS DNA, Mg++ (or Mn++), ATP and CTP (or a mixture of all 4 rNTPs), catalyzes the syn...
متن کاملOrigin and direction of synthesis of bacteriophage fl DNA.
The origin and direction of synthesis in vivo of the viral and complementary strands of f1 DNA were studied by measuring the distribution of radioactivity along the genome after a short pulse of [3H]thymidine. The results indicate that the origins of replication of viral and complementary strands are located close to one another, probably both within a restriction fragment (HaeIII-G) which is a...
