Direction of transcription in bacteriophage T5 first-step transfer DNA.
The transcription of the T5 first-step transfer genes A2 and A3 has been shown to proceed from right to left (i.e., from A3 to A2) on the T5 DNA molecule.
متن کاملRole of the T5 gene D15 nuclease in the generation of nicked bacteriophage T5 DNA.
The processing of newly replicated concatameric T5 DNA into both single stranded DNA changed of unit length and single-stranded fragments of sizes comparable to those found in mature T5 virion DNA occurs in the absence of late T5 protein synthesis. The formation of unit-length, single-stranded DNA chains does not require the early T5 gene D15 nuclease: however, the subsequent formation of the s...
متن کاملInteraction of a DNA-binding protein, the product of gene D5 of bacteriophage T5, with double-stranded DNA: effects on T5 DNA polymerase functions in vitro.
The gene D5 product (gpD5) of bacteriophage T5 is a DNA-binding protein that binds preferentially to double-stranded DNA and is essential for T5 DNA replication, yet it inhibits DNA synthesis in vitro. Mechanisms of inhibition were studied by using nicked DNA and primed single-stranded DNA as a primer-template. Inhibition of T5 DNA polymerase activity by gpD5 occurred when double-stranded regio...
متن کاملBacteriophage T5 gene D10 encodes a branch-migration protein
Helicases catalyze the unwinding of double-stranded nucleic acids where structure and phosphate backbone contacts, rather than nucleobase sequence, usually determines substrate specificity. We have expressed and purified a putative helicase encoded by the D10 gene of bacteriophage T5. Here we report that this hitherto uncharacterized protein possesses branch migration and DNA unwinding activity...
متن کاملPolarized injection of the bacteriophage T5 chromosome.
Examination of the first-step-transfer DNA of T5ris mutants which carry new EcoRI sites showed that the left end of the chromosome is injected first.
