Purification of sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins by affinity chromatography.
The affinity chromatography procedure described in this unit uses DNA containing specific recognition sites for the desired protein that has been covalently linked to a solid support. Preparation of a DNA affinity resin, including cyanogen bromide (CNBr) activation of the agarose support, is described, and an alternate protocol provides a method to couple DNA to commercially available CNBr-acti...
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-specific DNA binding by MYC/MAX to low-affinity non-E-box motifs
The MYC oncoprotein regulates transcription of a large fraction of the genome as an obligatory heterodimer with the transcription factor MAX. The MYC:MAX heterodimer and MAX:MAX homodimer (hereafter MYC/MAX) bind Enhancer box (E-box) DNA elements (CANNTG) and have the greatest affinity for the canonical MYC E-box (CME) CACGTG. However, MYC:MAX also recognizes E-box variants and was reported to ...
متن کاملDesign of novel sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins.
The design and selection of DNA-binding proteins or individual domains capable of novel sequence recognition continues to make great strides. Recent studies have also highlighted the role of the non-DNA-contacting portions of the protein and the optimal assembly of the domains. For the first time, it appears that it is possible to produce proteins capable of targeting any gene with an 18 base p...
متن کاملNovel method for identifying sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins.
We developed a general method for the enrichment and identification of sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins. A well-characterized protein-DNA interaction is used to isolate from crude cellular extracts or fractions thereof proteins which bind to specific DNA sequences; the method is based solely on this binding property of the proteins. The DNA sequence of interest, cloned adjacent to the lac...
