Inhibition of T7 RNA polymerase by T7 lysozyme in vitro.
The in vivo observation that the expression of bacteriophage T7 gene 3.5 (T7 lysozyme) inactivates T7 class II transcription and the in vitro observation that T7 lysozyme inhibits T7 RNA polymerase lead to the hypothesis that T7 lysozyme might preferentially inhibit transcription from T7 class II promoters. T7 lysozyme was cloned into a lambda pL expression vector, overproduced in Escherichia c...
متن کاملRNA-binding site in T7 RNA polymerase.
Recent models of RNA polymerase transcription complexes have invoked the idea that enzyme-nascent RNA contacts contribute to the stability of the complexes. Although much progress on this topic has been made with the multisubunit Escherichia coli RNA polymerase, there is a paucity of information regarding the structure of single-subunit phage RNA polymerase transcription complexes. Here, we pho...
متن کاملTemplate-dependent incorporation of 8-N3AMP into RNA with bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase.
UV-induced photochemical crosslinking is a powerful approach that can be used for the identification of specific interactions involving nucleic acid-protein and nucleic acid-nucleic acid complexes. 8-AzidoATP (8-N(3)ATP) is a photoaffinity-labeling agent which has been widely used to elucidate the ATP binding site of a variety of proteins. However, its true potential as a photoactivatable nucle...
متن کاملTranscription of RNA templates by T7 RNA polymerase.
Although highly specialized, T7 RNA polymerase seems to possess a large range of DNA- and RNA-dependent properties. To study such flexibility, we determined the ability of T7 RNA polymerase to transcribe chimeric DNA-RNA and RNA templates following initiation at a double stranded DNA promoter. We have found that T7 RNA polymerase is able to initiate on RNA templates, was processive, and was abl...
متن کاملTemplate-free generation of RNA species that replicate with bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase.
A large variety of different RNA species that are replicated by DNA-dependent RNA polymerase from bacteriophage T7 have been generated by incubating high concentrations of this enzyme with substrate for extended time periods. The products differed from sample to sample in molecular weight and sequence, their chain lengths ranging from 60 to 120. The mechanism of autocatalytic amplification of R...
