Tubular arrays of the actin-DNase I complex induced by gadolinium.
We describe the preparation and structural analysis of ordered tubular arrays of the actin-DNase I complex. These structures consist of helically stacked rings; each ring is 73 A thick, has a 240 A outer and a 120 A inner diameter, and has 7-fold rotational symmetry. The actin-DNase I complex forms tubes under conditions in which actin alone aggregates into crystalline sheets-i.e., in the prese...
متن کاملThermal unfolding of G-actin monitored with the DNase I-inhibition assay stabilities of actin isoforms.
Actin is one of the proteins that rely on chaperonins for proper folding. This paper shows that the thermal unfolding of G-actin, as studied by CD and ultraviolet difference spectrometry, coincides with a loss in DNase I-inhibiting activity of the protein. Thus, the DNase I inhibition assay should be useful for systematic studies of actin unfolding and refolding. Using this assay, we have inves...
متن کاملDNaseR: DNase I footprinting analysis of DNase-seq data
The combination of DNase I digestion and high-throughput sequencing (DNaseseq) has been used recently to map chromatin accessibility in a given tissue or cell type on a genome-wide scale (Song and Crawford, 2010). In addition to DNase I hypersensitive sites (DHSs), short regions of protected nucleotides known as footprints can be detected using a technique known as ”digital genomic footprinting...
متن کاملReorganization of actin in platelets stimulated by thrombin as measured by the DNase I inhibition assay.
The effect of thrombin stimulation on actin organization in human platelets has been analyzed by using the DNase I inhibition assay, which is selective for unpolymerized and filamentous actin. The results provide biochemical evidence for the suggestion that stimulation leads to rapid polymerization of actin. The measurements also reveal changes in the polymerization state of actin occurring aft...
متن کاملEngineering actin-resistant human DNase I for treatment of cystic fibrosis.
Human deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I), an enzyme recently approved for treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF), has been engineered to create two classes of mutants: actin-resistant variants, which still catalyze DNA hydrolysis but are no longer inhibited by globular actin (G-actin) and active site variants, which no longer catalyze DNA hydrolysis but still bind G-actin. Actin-resistant variants with t...
