RNA polymerase interaction with dnaB protein and lambda P protein during lambda replication.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Escherichia coli GroP- phenotype, associated with some dnaB mutants and measured as a decreased ability to plate lambda bacteriophage, was altered by some rpoB mutations. The rpoB effect showed an allele specificity. The participation both of dnaB and of lambda P alleles in the GroP- phenotype was also allele specific. It was concluded that RNA polymerase, dnaB protein, and lambda P protein form a functional complex required for lambda replication.

The bacteriophage lambda replication initiation protein P exhibits a toxic effect on its Escherichia coli (E. coli) host, likely due to the formation of a dead-end P-DnaB complex, sequestering the replicative DnaB helicase from further activity. Intracellular expression of P triggers SOS-independent cellular filamentation and rapidly cures resident ColE1 plasmids. The toxicity of P is suppresse...
متن کاملThe dnaB protein of Escherichia coli groPB mutants.
Escherichia coli groP dnaB mutants are unable to replicate X wild type phage. They are subdivided into gmPA and groA3 mutants by their ability to replicate certain X P mutants, called XaA and XaB. A functional interaction between dnaB and P protein was deduced from these results. (C. P. Georgopoulos and I. Herskowitz, (1971) in The Bacteriophage Lambda, p. 553, Cold Spring Harbor Labora tory) ....
متن کاملPhage Lambda P Protein: Trans-Activation, Inhibition Phenotypes and their Suppression
The initiation of bacteriophage λ replication depends upon interactions between the oriλ DNA site, phage proteins O and P, and E. coli host replication proteins. P exhibits a high affinity for DnaB, the major replicative helicase for unwinding double stranded DNA. The concept of P-lethality relates to the hypothesis that P can sequester DnaB and in turn prevent cellular replication initiation f...

Many of the proteins that operate at the replication fork in Escherichia coli have been defined genetically. These include some of the subunits of the DNA polymerase III holoenzyme, the DnaB replication fork helicase, and the DnaG primase. The multiprotein primosome (which includes the DnaB and DnaG proteins), defined biochemically on the basis of its requirement during bacteriophage phi X174 c...
متن کاملThe interaction of bacteriophage P2 B protein with Escherichia coli DnaB helicase.
Bacteriophage P2 requires several host proteins for lytic replication, including helicase DnaB but not the helicase loader, DnaC. Some genetic studies have suggested that the loading is done by a phage-encoded protein, P2 B. However, a P2 minichromosome containing only the P2 initiator gene A and a marker gene can be established as a plasmid without requiring the P2 B gene. Here we demonstrate ...
