Sequence-specific double-strand cleavage of DNA
In the presence of O2 and 5 mM dithiothreitol, penta-N-methylpyrrolecarboxamide-EDTA-Fe(II) [P5E*Fe(lI)] at 0.5 ILM cleaves pBR322 plasmid DNA (50 pAM in base pairs) on opposite strands to afford discrete DNA fragments as analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. High-resolution denaturing gel electrophoresis of a nP-end-labeled 517-base-pair restriction fragment containing a major cleavage site...
متن کاملNonenzymatic sequence-specific cleavage of single-stranded DNA.
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid have been attached covalently to the 5' terminus of the deoxynucleotide sequence C-A-C-A-A-T-T-C-C-A-C-A-C-A-A-C (16-mer) via an ethylenediamine linker. In the presence of Fe2+ and dithiothreitol, these reagents bring about the hybridization-dependent cleavage of the sequence T-C-G-T-A-T-G-T-T-G-T-G-T-G-G-A-A-T-T-G-T-G-A-G-C...
متن کاملSequence-specific DNA cleavage mediated by bipyridine polyamide conjugates
The design of molecules that damage a selected DNA sequence provides a formidable opportunity for basic and applied biology. For example, such molecules offer new prospects for controlled manipulation of the genome. The conjugation of DNA-code reading molecules such as polyamides to reagents that induce DNA damages provides an approach to reach this goal. In this work, we showed that a bipyridi...
متن کاملA MODEL FOR THE BASIC HELIX- LOOPHELIX MOTIF AND ITS SEQUENCE SPECIFIC RECOGNITION OF DNA
A three dimensional model of the basic Helix-Loop-Helix motif and its sequence specific recognition of DNA is described. The basic-helix I is modeled as a continuous ?-helix because no ?-helix breaking residue is found between the basic region and the first helix. When the basic region of the two peptide monomers are aligned in the successive major groove of the cognate DNA, the hydrophobi...
متن کاملDrosophila topoisomerase II double-strand DNA cleavage: analysis of DNA sequence homology at the cleavage site.
In order to study the sequence specificity of double-strand DNA cleavage by Drosophila topoisomerase II, we have mapped and sequenced 16 strong and 47 weak cleavage sites in the recombinant plasmid p pi 25.1. Analysis of the nucleotide and dinucleotide frequencies in the region near the site of phosphodiester bond breakage revealed a nonrandom distribution. The nucleotide frequencies observed w...
