Popis: | The bacteriophage øX174 gene A protein cleaves the viral strand of the double-stranded replicative form (RF) DNA of the phage at a specific site, the origin. It leaves a free 3'-OH at nucleotide 4305 (G) of the øx DNA sequence and binds covalently to the DNA. The nature and position of the covalent bond have been determined using the octadecadesoxyribonucleotide CAACTTG[32P]ATATTAATAAC. This octadecamer, which corresponds to nucleotides 4299–4316 of øX viral DNA, is cleaved by gene A protein. Gene A protein is bound to the labelled phosphate via a tyrosyl residue, indicating that binding occurs to the nucleotide corresponding to 4306 (A) of the øX viral DNA strand.Bacteriophage øX174Gene A proteinDNA replicationProtein-DNA complexSynthetic oligonucleotideTyrosyl-5'-phosphate ester |
