Indirect readout of DNA sequence by p22 repressor: roles of DNA and protein functional groups in modulating DNA conformation.
The repressor of bacteriophage P22 (P22R) discriminates between its various DNA binding sites by sensing the identity of non-contacted base pairs at the center of its binding site. The "indirect readout" of these non-contacted bases is apparently based on DNA's sequence-dependent conformational preferences. The structures of P22R-DNA complexes indicate that the non-contacted base pairs at the c...
متن کاملCorrected sequence of the bacteriophage p22 genome.
We report the first accurate genome sequence for bacteriophage P22, correcting a 0.14% error rate in previously determined sequences. DNA sequencing technology is now good enough that genomes of important model systems like P22 can be sequenced with essentially 100% accuracy with minimal investment of time and resources.
متن کاملP22 c2 repressor-operator complex: mechanisms of direct and indirect readout.
The P22 c2 repressor protein (P22R) binds to DNA sequence-specifically and helps to direct the temperate lambdoid bacteriophage P22 to the lysogenic developmental pathway. We describe the 1.6 A X-ray structure of the N-terminal domain (NTD) of P22R in a complex with a DNA fragment containing the synthetic operator sequence [d(ATTTAAGATATCTTAAAT)]2. This operator has an A-T base pair at position...
متن کاملEcoRI analysis of bacteriophage P22 DNA packaging.
Bacteriophage P22 linear DNA molecules are a set of circularly permuted sequences with ends located in a limited region of the physical map. This mature form of the viral chromosome is cut in headful lengths from a concatemeric precursor during DNA encapsulation. Packaging of P22 DNA begins at a specific site, which we have termed pat, and then proceeds sequentially to cut lengths of DNA slight...
متن کاملRecombinational circularization of Salmonella phage P22 DNA.
The development of phage P22 following infection involves a mandatory recombination step, the timing of which is the same in both the lytic and lysogenic pathways. Covalently circular molecules of phage DNA were identified by alkaline sucrose sedimentation of infected cell lysates. The time of appearance of these structures corresponds to the time of the essential recombination step. On infecti...
