Structure of the DNA-binding domain of NgTRF1 reveals unique features of plant telomere-binding proteins
Telomeres are protein-DNA elements that are located at the ends of linear eukaryotic chromosomes. In concert with various telomere-binding proteins, they play an essential role in genome stability. We determined the structure of the DNA-binding domain of NgTRF1, a double-stranded telomere-binding protein of tobacco, using multidimensional NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. The DNA-bind...
متن کاملStructure of PolC reveals unique DNA binding and fidelity determinants.
PolC is the polymerase responsible for genome duplication in many Gram-positive bacteria and represents an attractive target for antibacterial development. We have determined the 2.4-A resolution crystal structure of Geobacillus kaustophilus PolC in a ternary complex with DNA and dGTP. The structure reveals nascent base pair interactions that lead to highly accurate nucleotide incorporation. A ...
متن کاملTranscription regulates oxolinic acid-induced DNA gyrase cleavage at specific sites on the E. coli chromosome.
Prominent DNA gyrase-mediated cleavage sites, induced by oxolinic acid, occur at specific, but infrequent, locations on the Escherichia coli chromosome. These sites, which we call toposites, may represent high affinity DNA gyrase binding sites or may mark chromosomal regions that accumulate superhelical stress. Toposites are usually grouped in 5 to 10 kb clusters that are mostly 50 to 100 kb ap...
متن کاملthe underlying structure of language proficiency and the proficiency level
هدف از انجام این تخقیق بررسی رابطه احتمالی بین سطح مهارت زبان خارجی (foreign language proficiency) و ساختار مهارت زبان خارجی بود. تعداد 314 زبان آموز مونث و مذکر که عمدتا دانشجویان رشته های زبان انگلیسی در سطوح کارشناسی و کارشناسی ارشد بودند در این تحقیق شرکت کردند. از لحاظ سطح مهارت زبان خارجی شرکت کنندگان بسیار با هم متفاوت بودند، (75 نفر سطح پیشرفته، 113 نفر سطح متوسط، 126 سطح مقدماتی). کلا ...
15 صفحه اولSolution structure of the Pdp1 PWWP domain reveals its unique binding sites for methylated H4K20 and DNA.
Methylation of H4K20 (Lys(20) of histone H4) plays an important role in the regulation of diverse cellular processes. In fission yeast, all three states of H4K20 methylation are catalysed by Set9. Pdp1 is a PWWP (proline-tryptophan-tryptophan-proline) domain-containing protein, which associates with Set9 to regulate its chromatin localization and methyltransferase activity towards H4K20. The st...
