Characterization of proteolytic fragments of bacteriophage T7 DNA ligase.
Treatment of T7 DNA ligase with a range of proteases generates two major fragments which are resistant to further digestion. These fragments, of molecular weight 16 and 26 kDa, are derived from the N- and C-termini of the protein, respectively. The presence of ATP or a non-hydrolysable analogue, ADPNP, during limited proteolysis greatly reduces the level of digestion. The N-terminal 16 kDa regi...
متن کاملBacteriophage T7 DNA polymerase – sequenase
An ideal DNA polymerase for chain-terminating DNA sequencing should possess the following features: (1) incorporate dideoxy- and other modified nucleotides at an efficiency similar to that of the cognate deoxynucleotides; (2) high processivity; (3) high fidelity in the absence of proofreading/exonuclease activity; and (4) production of clear and uniform signals for detection. The DNA polymerase...
متن کاملCrystal Structure of an ATP-Dependent DNA Ligase from Bacteriophage T7
The crystal structure of the ATP-dependent DNA ligase from bacteriophage T7 has been solved at 2.6 A resolution. The protein comprises two domains with a deep cleft running between them. The structure of a complex with ATP reveals that the nucleotide binding pocket is situated on the larger N-terminal domain, at the base of the cleft between the two domains of the enzyme. Comparison of the over...
متن کاملChoreography of bacteriophage T7 DNA replication.
The replication system of phage T7 provides a model for DNA replication. Biochemical, structural, and single-molecule analyses together provide insight into replisome mechanics. A complex of polymerase, a processivity factor, and helicase mediates leading strand synthesis. Establishment of the complex requires an interaction of the C-terminal tail of the helicase with the polymerase. During syn...
متن کاملEncapsidated Conformation of Bacteriophage T7 DNA
The structural organization of encapsidated T7 DNA was investigated by cryo-electron microscopy and image processing. A tail-deletion mutant was found to present two preferred views of phage heads: views along the axis through the capsid vertex where the connector protein resides and via which DNA is packaged; and side views perpendicular to this axis. The resulting images reveal striking patte...
