Purified dnaA protein in initiation of replication at the Escherichia coli chromosomal origin of replication.
Soluble protein fractions from Escherichia coli dnaA+ cells but not dnaA temperature-sensitive cells replicate plasmids containing the E. coli chromosomal origin of replication (oriC). Complementation of these mutant fractions provided an assay for dnaA protein activity in initiation of replication at oriC. From a strain (constructed in vitro) that overproduces the dnaA protein more than 200-fo...
متن کاملRegulatory dynamics in the ternary DnaA complex for initiation of chromosomal replication in Escherichia coli
In Escherichia coli, the level of the ATP-DnaA initiator is increased temporarily at the time of replication initiation. The replication origin, oriC, contains a duplex-unwinding element (DUE) flanking a DnaA-oligomerization region (DOR), which includes twelve DnaA-binding sites (DnaA boxes) and the DNA-bending protein IHF-binding site (IBS). Although complexes of IHF and ATP-DnaA assembly on t...
متن کاملRegulation of chromosomal replication initiation by oriC-proximal DnaA-box clusters in Bacillus subtilis
Bacterial chromosome replication is initiated by binding of DnaA to a DnaA-box cluster (DBC) within the replication origin (oriC). In Bacillus subtilis, six additional DBCs are found outside of oriC and some are known to be involved in transcriptional regulation of neighboring genes. A deletion mutant lacking the six DBCs (Δ6) initiated replication early. Further, inactivation of spo0J in Δ6 ce...
متن کاملDnaA dependent replication of plasmid R1 occurs in the presence of point mutations that disrupt the dnaA box of oriR.
We have found that DnaA dependent replication of R1 still occurred when 5 of the 9 bases in the dnaA box present in oriR were changed by site directed mutagenesis although the replication efficiency decreased to 20% and 70% of the wild-type origin in vitro and in vivo respectively. Additional mutation of a second dnaA box, 28 bp upstream oriR, that differs in only one base from the consensus se...
متن کاملThe bacterial replication initiator DnaA. DnaA and oriC, the bacterial mode to initiate DNA replication.
The initiation of replication is the central event in the bacterial cell cycle. Cells control the rate of DNA synthesis by modulating the frequency with which new chains are initiated, like all macromolecular synthesis. The end of the replication cycle provides a checkpoint that must be executed for cell division to occur. This review summarizes recent insight into the biochemistry, genetics an...
