Single‐molecule mechanochemical characterization of E. coli pol III core catalytic activity
Pol III core is the three-subunit subassembly of the E. coli replicative DNA polymerase III holoenzyme. It contains the catalytic polymerase subunit α, the 3' → 5' proofreading exonuclease ε, and a subunit of unknown function, θ. We employ optical tweezers to characterize pol III core activity on a single DNA substrate. We observe polymerization at applied template forces F < 25 pN and exonucle...
متن کاملcomparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.
heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...
15 صفحه اولQuaternary structure and catalytic activity of the Escherichia coli ribonuclease E amino-terminal catalytic domain.
RNase E is an essential endoribonuclease that plays a central role in the processing and degradation of RNA in Escherichia coli and other bacteria. Most endoribonucleases have been shown to act distributively; however, Feng et al. [(2002) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 99, 14746-14751] have recently found that RNase E acts via a scanning mechanism. A structural explanation for the processivity o...

متن کاملEscherichia coli DNA polymerase IV (Pol IV), but not Pol II, dynamically switches with a stalled Pol III* replicase.
The dnaN159 allele encodes a temperature-sensitive mutant form of the β sliding clamp (β159). SOS-induced levels of DNA polymerase IV (Pol IV) confer UV sensitivity upon the dnaN159 strain, while levels of Pol IV ∼4-fold higher than those induced by the SOS response severely impede its growth. Here, we used mutations in Pol IV that disrupted specific interactions with the β clamp to test our hy...
