Transcript Cleavage by Thermus thermophilus RNA Polymerase
All known multisubunit RNA polymerases possess the ability to endonucleolytically degrade the nascent RNA transcript. To gain further insight into the conformational changes that govern transcript cleavage, we have examined the effects of certain anions on the intrinsic transcript cleavage activity of Thermus thermophilus RNA polymerase. Our results indicate that the conformational transitions ...
متن کاملReverse transcription and DNA amplification by a Thermus thermophilus DNA polymerase.
A recombinant DNA polymerase derived from the thermophilic eubacterium Thermus thermophilus (Tth pol) was found to possess very efficient reverse transcriptase (RT) activity in the presence of MnCl2. Many of the problems typically associated with the high degree of secondary structure present in RNA are minimized by using a thermostable DNA polymerase for reverse transcription, and predominantl...
متن کاملLong-Range PCR Amplification of DNA by DNA Polymerase III Holoenzyme from Thermus thermophilus
DNA replication in bacteria is accomplished by a multicomponent replicase, the DNA polymerase III holoenzyme (pol III HE). The three essential components of the pol III HE are the α polymerase, the β sliding clamp processivity factor, and the DnaX clamp-loader complex. We report here the assembly of the functional holoenzyme from Thermus thermophilus (Tth), an extreme thermophile. The minimal h...
متن کاملCreation of genetic information by DNA polymerase of the thermophilic bacterium Thermus thermophilus.
Genetic information encoded in a template of a genome is replicated in a complementary way by DNA polymerase or RNA polymerase with high fidelity; no creation of information occurs in this reaction unless an error occurs. We report here that DNA polymerase of the thermophilic bacterium Thermus thermophilus can synthesize up to 200 kb linear double-stranded DNA in vitro in the complete absence o...
متن کاملPurification and initial characterization of RNA polymerase from Thermus thermophilus strain HB8.
Utilizing a novel and rapid two-column purification procedure, the DNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RNAP) from the thermophile, Thermus thermophilus HB8, was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity with a recovery of 65% (as determined by RNAP activity) in less than 2 days. The purified enzyme was characterized using DNA containing the lambdaP(R) promoter. KMnO(4) footprinting, abortive initiation...
