The primary structure of the T4 single-stranded DNA-binding protein coded by gene 32 has been determined by manual and autoated sequencing of peptides derived from partial proteolysis, cyanogen bromide cleavage, and digestion with trypsin, chymotrypsin, and staphylococcal protease. Tryptic digestion of citraconylated or succinylated gene 32 protein yields five peptides containing 4, 27, 42, 65, and 163 residues, which can be separated by Sephadex chromatography. Each of the tryptic peptides was subjected to automated sequencing and, if necessary, more extensive cleavage. The intact protein contains 301 amino acids, has a molecular weight of 33,487, and can be specifically cleaved at lysines 21 and 253 by limited trypsin digestion. Previous studies have shown that the "B" region (residues 1-21), which has a charge of +4, is important for the protein-protein interactions involved in gene 32 protein self-association and cooperaive binding to single-stranded DNA. The "A" region (residues 254-301) has been implicated in controlling the helix-destabilizing "activity" of gene 32 protein and in interacting with other T4 DNA replication proteins. The A region has a charge of -10 and, in addition, contains two unusual stretches of four serine residues separated by glycine 284. The region between positions 73 and 115 contains 75% of the tyrosine residues and may be important for DNA binding. 相似文献

A 7-kDa region of the bacteriophage T7 gene 4 protein is required for primase but not for helicase activity. 总被引:16,自引:6,他引:10 下载免费PDF全文

Bacteriophage T7 gene 4 protein, purified from phage-infected cells, consists of a mixture of 56- and 63-kDa species that provides helicase and primase activities required for T7 DNA replication. The 56-kDa species has been purified independently of the colinear 63-kDa species. Like a mixture of the two proteins, the 56-kDa protein binds single-stranded DNA in the presence of dTTP, catalyzes DNA-dependent hydrolysis of dTTP, and has helicase activity. In contrast to the mixture, the 56-kDa protein cannot catalyze template-dependent RNA primer synthesis. In the absence of a DNA template, both the 56-kDa protein and the mixture of the two species synthesize low levels of diribonucleotide. A putative "zinc finger" present near the amino terminus of the 63-kDa protein but absent from the 56-kDa protein may play a major role in the recognition of primase sites in the template. 相似文献

Affinity purification of bacteriophage T4 proteins essential for DNA replication and genetic recombination. 总被引:16,自引:8,他引:8 下载免费PDF全文

The bacteriophage T4 helix-destabilizing protein, the product of gene 32, has been immobilized on an agarose matrix and used for affinity chromatography of lysates of T4-infected Escherichia coli cells. At least 10 T4-encoded early proteins and 3 or 4 host proteins are specifically retained by this gene 32 protein column. Nine of the T4 proteins have been identified as being involved in either DNA replication or genetic recombination. Notably, the T4 DNA polymerase (gene 43 protein) and two major proteins in the recombination pathway (the products of genes uvsX and uvsY) are specifically bound. On a preparative scale, the column is useful for purification of the bound proteins. 相似文献

Genetic evidence for an additional function of phage T4 gene 32 protein: interaction with ligase. 总被引:9,自引:2,他引:7 下载免费PDF全文

Gene 32 of bacteriophage T4 is essential for DNA replication, recombination, and repair. In an attempt to clarify the role of the corresponding gene product, we have looked for mutations that specifically inactivate one but not all of its functions and for compensating suppressor mutations in other genes. Here we describe a gene 32 ts mutant that does not produce progeny, but in contrast to an am mutant investigated by others, is capable of some primary and secondary DNA replication and of forming "joint" recombinational intermediates after infection of Escherichia coli B at the restrictive temperature. However, parental and progeny DNA strands are not ligated to covalently linked "recombinant" molecules, and single strands of vegetative DNA do not exceed unit length. Progeny production as well as capacity for covalent linkage in this gene 32 ts mutant are partially restored by additional rII mutations. Suppression by rII depends on functioning host ligase [EC 6.5.1.2; poly(deoxyribonucleotide):poly(deoxyribonucleotide) ligase (AMP-forming, NMN-forming)]. This gene 32 ts mutation (unlike some others) in turn suppresses the characteristic plaque morphology of rII mutants. We conclude that gene 32 protein, in addition to its role in DNA replication and in the formation of "joint" recombinational intermediates, interacts with T4 ligase [EC 6.5.1.1; poly(deoxyribonucleotide):poly(deoxyribonucleotide) ligase (AMP-forming)] when recombining DNA strands are covalently linked. The protein of the mutant that we describe here is mainly defective in this interaction, thus inactivating T4 ligase in recombination. Suppressing rII mutations facilitate substitution of host ligase. There is suggestive evidence that these interactions occur at the membrane. 相似文献
