Design 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...
متن کاملSequence-specific binding of luzopeptin to DNA.
We have examined the binding of luzopeptin, an antitumor antibiotic, to five DNA fragments of varying base composition. The drug forms a tight, possibly covalent, complex with the DNA causing a reduction in mobility on nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels and some smearing of the bands consistent with intramolecular cross-linking of DNA duplexes. DNAase I and micrococcal nuclease footprinting expe...
متن کاملSequence-specific DNA binding by the MspI DNA methyltransferase.
The MspI methyltransferase (M.MspI) recognizes the sequence CCGG and catalyzes the formation of 5-methylcytosine at the fist C-residue. We have investigated the sequence-specific DNA-binding properties of M.MspI under equilibrium conditions, using gel-mobility shift assays and DNasel footprinting. M.MspI binds to DNA in a sequence-specific manner either alone or in the presence of the normal me...
متن کاملDNA-epoxyceliulose to sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins
Phage A DNA was covalently coupled to epoxy-activated cellulose to form a stable DNA-cellulose matrix for affinity chromatography of sequence-specific DNAbinding proteins. The accessibility of three specific six-base sequences, GGATCC (BamHI), GAATTC (EcoRI) and AAGCTT (HindIII) was studied quantitatively and qualitatively by restriction analysis followed by labelling of their recessed ends. Al...
متن کاملSequence and structural requirements for high-affinity DNA binding by the WT1 gene product.
The Wilms' tumor suppressor gene, WT1, encodes a zinc finger polypeptide which plays a key role regulating cell growth and differentiation in the urogenital system. Using the whole-genome PCR approach, we searched murine genomic DNA for high-affinity WT1 binding sites and identified a 10-bp motif 5'GCGTGGGAGT3' which we term WTE). The WTE motif is similar to the consensus binding sequence 5'GCG...
