Major coat protein and single-stranded DNA-binding protein of filamentous virus Pf3.
The region of the Pf3 virus genome encoding its major coat protein and its single-stranded DNA-binding protein is organized somewhat like the corresponding region of the fd (M13, f1) genome. Nevertheless, the major coat protein is unique among the major coat proteins of fd and the other filamentous phages studied in that it lacks a signal sequence and appears to be a direct translation product ...
متن کاملThe major herpes simplex virus DNA-binding protein holds single-stranded DNA in an extended configuration.
Properties of the major DNA-binding protein found in herpes simplex virus-infected cells were investigated by using a filter binding assay and electron microscopy. Filter binding indicated that the stoichiometry of binding of the protein with single-stranded DNA is approximately 40 nucleotides per protein molecule at saturation. Strong clustering of the protein in DNA-protein complexes, indicat...
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 کاملThe major coat protein gene of the filamentous Pseudomonas aeruginosa phage Pf3: absence of an N-terminal leader signal sequence.
From in vitro protein synthesis studies and nucleotide sequence analysis it has been deduced that, unlike the major coat proteins of the hitherto studied filamentous bacterial viruses Ff (M13, fd and f1), IKe and Pf1, the major coat protein of the filamentous Pseudomonas aeruginosa virus Pf3 is not synthesized as a precursor containing a leader signal polypeptide at its N-terminal end. From the...
متن کاملContinuous association of Escherichia coli single-stranded DNA binding protein with stable complexes of recA protein and single-stranded DNA.
The single-stranded DNA binding protein of Escherichia coli (SSB) stimulates recA protein promoted DNA strand exchange reactions by promoting and stabilizing the interaction between recA protein and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). Utilizing the intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence of SSB, an ATP-dependent interaction has been detected between SSB and recA-ssDNA complexes. This interaction is continuo...
