The DNA-binding domain of human papillomavirus type 18 E1. Crystal structure, dimerization, and DNA binding.
High risk types of human papillomavirus, such as type 18 (HPV-18), cause cervical carcinoma, one of the most frequent causes of cancer death in women worldwide. DNA replication is one of the central processes in viral maintenance, and the machinery involved is an excellent target for the design of antiviral therapy. The papillomaviral DNA replication initiation protein E1 has origin recognition...
متن کاملCharacterization of the DNA-binding domain of the bovine papillomavirus replication initiator E1.
The bovine papillomavirus replication initiator protein E1 is an origin of replication (ori)-binding protein absolutely required for viral DNA replication. In the presence of the viral transcription factor E2, E1 binds to the ori and initiates DNA replication. To understand how the E1 initiator recognizes the ori and how E2 assists in this process, we have expressed and purified a 166-amino-aci...
متن کاملCrystal structure of the DNA binding domain of the replication initiation protein E1 from papillomavirus.
Papillomaviral infection causes both benign and malignant lesions and is a necessary cause of cervical carcinoma. Replication of this virus requires the replication initiation proteins E1 and E2, which bind cooperatively at the origin of replication (ori) as an (E1)2-(E2)2-DNA complex. This is a precursor to larger E1 complexes that distort and unwind the ori. We present the crystal structure o...
متن کاملFunctional mapping of the DNA binding domain of bovine papillomavirus E1 protein.
Bovine papillomavirus type 1 (BPV-1) requires viral proteins E1 and E2 for efficient DNA replication in host cells. E1 functions at the BPV origin as an ATP-dependent helicase during replication initiation. Previously, we used alanine mutagenesis to identify two hydrophilic regions of the E1 DNA binding domain (E1DBD), HR1 (E1(179-191)) and HR3 (E1(241-252)), which are critical for sequence-spe...
متن کاملThe papillomavirus E2 DNA binding domain.
The DNA binding domain of the E2 master regulator from papillomaviruses is the primary effector for most the essential activities controlled by this protein. In this review we focus on the properties of the DNA binding domain of human papillomavirus strain 16 in solution, integrating structure, dynamics, folding, stability, conformational equilibria, and DNA binding mechanism. We discuss the re...
