Apparent stimulation of calf thymus DNA polymerase alpha by ATP.
The mechanism by which millimolar concentrations of ATP stimulate the activity and increase the processivity of calf thymus DNA polymerase alpha has been investigated with poly(dA)/oligo(dT) as template/primer to eliminate possible effects due to primer synthesis. The effect of ATP on the rate of DNA synthesis with this template/primer was found to be dependent upon whether or not the ATP was n...
متن کاملDNA polymerase lambda from calf thymus preferentially replicates damaged DNA.
A new gene (POLL), has been identified encoding the novel DNA polymerase lambda and mapped to mouse chromosome 19 and at human chromosome 10. DNA polymerase lambda contains all the critical residues involved in DNA binding, nucleotide binding, nucleotide selection, and catalysis of DNA polymerization and has been assigned to family X based on sequence homology with polymerase beta, lambda, mu, ...
متن کاملCalf thymus polymerase.
The term polymerase has been applied to the deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate-polymerizing enzyme isolated from Escherichia coli (1). Enzymes with similar activity have been purified from regenerating rat liver (2) and calf thymus gland (3). An ample and varied supply of such polymerases is desirable for studies on the mechanism of deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis. The present work describes a pa...
متن کاملDNA primase activity associated with DNA polymerase alpha from Xenopus laevis ovaries.
One of the two forms of DNA polymerase alpha from ovaries of the frog Xenopus laevis catalyzed ribonucleoside triphosphate-dependent DNA synthesis on single-stranded circular fd phage DNA templates. DNA synthesis was dependent on ATP and added template. CTP, GTP, and UTP stimulated DNA synthesis but were not required and could not substitute for ATP. DNA synthesis was not inhibited by alpha-ama...
متن کاملMolecular architecture of the mouse DNA polymerase alpha-primase complex.
The DNA polymerase alpha-primase complex is the only enzyme that provides RNA-DNA primers for chromosomal DNA replication in eukaryotes. Mouse DNA polymerase alpha has been shown to consist of four subunits, p180, p68, p54, and p46. To characterize the domain structures and subunit requirements for the assembly of the complex, we constructed eukaryotic polycistronic cDNA expression plasmids exp...
