Radiosensitivity of DNA in a specific protein-DNA complex: the lac repressor-lac operator complex.
PURPOSE To calculate the probability of radiation-induced frank strand breakage (FSB) at each nucleotide in the Escherichia coli lac repressor-lac operator system using a simulation procedure. To compare calculated and experimental results. To asses the contribution of DNA conformational changes and of the masking by the protein to DNA protection by the repressor. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two st...
متن کاملA POP-1 repressor complex restricts inappropriate cell type-specific gene transcription during Caenorhabditis elegans embryogenesis.
In Caenorhabditis elegans, histone acetyltransferase CBP-1 counteracts the repressive activity of the histone deacetylase HDA-1 to allow endoderm differentiation, which is specified by the E cell. In the sister MS cell, the endoderm fate is prevented by the action of an HMG box-containing protein, POP-1, through an unknown mechanism. In this study, we show that CBP-1, HDA-1 and POP-1 converge o...
متن کاملStudies on gene control regions X. The effect of specific adenine-thymine transversions on the lac repressor-lac operator interaction.
Chemical and enzymatic methods were used to synthesize a transition (AT to GC) and a transversion (AT to TA) at a lac operator site known to interact with lac repressor through the thymine 5 methyl group. These operators also contained a poly(dA) . poly(dT) tail 8 to 12 base pairs in length at one end. Results suggest that the steric constraints of lac repressor relative to the position of the ...
متن کاملInducible gene expression mediated by a repressor-operator system isolated from Lactococcus lactis bacteriophage r1t.
A regulatory region of the temperate Lactococcus lactis bacteriophage r1t chromosome has been cloned and characterized. It encompasses the two divergently oriented genes rro, encoding the phage repressor, and tec. Both genes, of which the transcription start sites have been mapped, are preceded by consensus -35 and -10 promoter sequences. The region contains three 21 bp direct repeats with inte...
متن کاملRecognition of operator DNA by Tet repressor.
The recognition of operator DNA by Tet repressor was analyzed by fluorescence stopped flow measurements. The main part of the fluorescence change observed for the reaction of the repressor with operator DNA reflects a second-order binding reaction including the expected concentration dependence. Global fitting of transients measured at different concentrations reveal at least one intramolecular...
