Arabidopsis thaliana telomeric DNA-binding protein 1 is required for telomere length homeostasis and its Myb-extension domain stabilizes plant telomeric DNA binding
Telomeres are specific protein-DNA complexes that protect the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes from fusion and degradation and are maintained by a specialized mechanism exerted by telomerase and telomere-binding proteins (TBPs), which are evolutionarily conserved. AtTBP1 is an Arabidopsis thaliana protein that binds plant telomeric DNA in vitro. Here, we demonstrated that lack of AtTBP1 results i...
متن کاملFunctional analysis of glycin rich- RNA binding protein, a suppressor of trehalose-6-phosphate mediating growth arrest in Arabidopsis thaliana
Metabolism of the alpha-1,1 glucose disaccharide, trehalose, is indispensable in plants. In the Murashigeand Skoog (MS) medium, trehalose inhibits plant growth and allocation of carbon to roots. A suppressorof trehalose-6-phosphate (T6P) mediated growth arrest, GR-RBP2, is characterized in more detail.Phylogenetic analysis revealed that GR-RBP2 is a protein of likely prokaryot...
متن کاملSequence-specific and conformation-dependent binding of yeast telomerase RNA to single-stranded telomeric DNA.
Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein reverse trans-criptase responsible for the maintenance of one strand of telomere terminal repeats. The mechanisms whereby telomerase recognizes chromosomal ends are not fully characterized. Earlier studies showed that the yeast telomerase RNP could bind the dG-rich strand of yeast telomeres with high affinity and sequence specificity. Further analysis of telome...
متن کاملIdentification of yolk protein factor 1, a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein from Drosophila melanogaster.
Transcription of the three yolk protein genes of Drosophila melanogaster is under strict developmental regulation. Understanding the mechanism of this regulation requires examination of the DNA sequences and protein factors necessary for normal transcriptional control. We have identified a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein, yolk protein factor 1 (YPF1), that has high affinity for a 31-bp se...
متن کاملDesign of sequence-specific DNA-binding molecules.
Base sequence information can be stored in the local structure of right-handed double-helical DNA (B-DNA). The question arises as to whether a set of rules for the three-dimensional readout of the B-DNA helix can be developed. This would allow the design of synthetic molecules that bind DNA of any specific sequence and site size. There are four stages of development for each new synthetic seque...
