The initiation of adenovirus DNA takes place at the termini of the viral genome and requires the presence of specific nucleotide sequence elements. To define the sequence organization of the viral origin, we tested a large number of deletion, insertion, and base substitution mutants for their ability to support initiation and replication in vitro. The data demonstrate that the origin consists of at least three functionally distinct domains, A, B, and C. Domain A (nucleotides 1 to 18) contains the minimal sequence sufficient for origin function. Domains B (nucleotides 19 to 40) and C (nucleotides 41 to 51) contain accessory sequences that significantly increase the activity of the minimal origin. The presence of domain B increases the efficiency of initiation by more than 10-fold in vitro, and the presence of domains B and C increases the efficiency of initiation by more than 30-fold. Mutations that alter the distance between the minimal origin and the accessory domains by one or two base pairs dramatically decrease initiation efficiency. This critical spacing requirement suggests that there are specific interactions between the factors that recognize the two regions. 相似文献

Coordinated leading and lagging strand synthesis during SV40 DNA replication in vitro requires PCNA 总被引:78,自引:0,他引:78
Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is a cell cycle and growth regulated protein required for replication of SV40 DNA in vitro. Its function was investigated by comparison of the replication products synthesized in its presence or absence. In the completely reconstituted replication system that contains PCNA, DNA synthesis initiates at the origin and proceeds bidirectionally on both leading and lagging strands around the template DNA to yield duplex, circular daughter molecules. In contrast, in the absence of PCNA, early replicative intermediates containing short nascent strands accumulate. Replication forks continue bidirectionally from the origin, but surprisingly, only lagging strand products are synthesized. Thus two stages of DNA synthesis have been defined, with the second stage requiring PCNA for coordinated leading and lagging strand synthesis at the replication fork. We suggest that during eukaryotic chromosome replication there is a switch to a PCNA-dependent elongation stage that requires two distinct DNA polymerases. 相似文献

Adenovirus DNA replication in vitro: duplication of single-stranded DNA containing a panhandle structure 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Adenovirus DNA replicates by displacement of one of the parental strands followed by duplication of the displaced parental single strand (complementary strand synthesis). Displacement synthesis has been performed in a reconstituted system composed of viral and cellular proteins, employing either the viral DNA-terminal protein complex as template or linearized plasmids containing the origin. Previously, evidence was obtained that in vivo complementary strand synthesis requires formation of a panhandle structure originating from hybridization of the inverted terminal repeats. To study the conditions for complementary strand synthesis in vitro, we have constructed an artificial panhandle molecule that contains a double-stranded inverted terminal repetition (ITR) region and a single-stranded loop derived from the left and right terminal XmaI fragments of Ad2. Such a molecule appeared to be an efficient template and could initiate by the same protein-priming mechanism as double-stranded DNA, employing the precursor terminal protein. The efficiency of both types of template was comparable. Like for replication of the duplex molecule initiation of panhandle replication was stimulated by nuclear factors I and III, proteins that bind to specific double-stranded regions of the ITR. The Ad DNA-binding protein is essential and the 39 kDa C-terminal domain of this protein that harbors the DNA-binding properties is sufficient for its function. These results support the hypothesis that panhandle formation is required for duplication of the displaced strand. 相似文献

DNA synthesis in a mitochondrial lysate of Xenopus laevis oocytes. H strand replication in vitro 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Conditions for efficient replication in vitro of mitochondrial DNA L strand into H strand products have been established. Gel electrophoresis and hybridization analyses of the products show that neosynthesized H strands are progressively elongated from the D-loop region, and some of them are synthesized as full-length molecules. Evidence for initiation of these H strands de novo is presented. In contrast, there is no detectable L strand synthesis in vitro in this system. This may prove useful for analyzing the distinct molecular mechanisms operating at OH and OL. Use of specific inhibitors indicates that DNA synthesis in the mitochondrial lysate in vitro requires DNA polymerase gamma. These observations support the conclusion that replication in vitro in this system closely resembles the first steps of mitochondrial DNA replication in vivo. 相似文献

Adenovirus cores prepared by gentle disruption of virus by heating at 56 degrees C in the presence of deoxycholate were able to function as templates in an in vitro DNA replication system, allowing both initiation, indicated by the formation of terminal protein-dCMP complex, and elongation of > 300 nucleotides. Using both cores and DNA-protein complexes as templates, it was also demonstrated that novobiocin, an inhibitor of DNA gyrase, inhibited in vitro DNA replication by preventing formation of the initiation complex. 相似文献

The proteins of bacteriophage T7 DNA replication mediate coordinated leading and lagging strand synthesis on a minicircle template. A distinguishing feature of the coordinated synthesis is the presence of a replication loop containing double and single-stranded DNA with a combined average length of 2600 nucleotides. Lagging strands consist of multiple Okazaki fragments, with an average length of 3000 nucleotides, suggesting that the replication loop dictates the frequency of initiation of Okazaki fragments. The size of Okazaki fragments is not affected by varying the components (T7 DNA polymerase, gene 4 helicase-primase, gene 2.5 single-stranded DNA binding protein, and rNTPs) of the reaction over a relatively wide range. Changes in the size of Okazaki fragments occurs only when leading and lagging strand synthesis is no longer coordinated. The synthesis of each Okazaki fragment is initiated by the synthesis of an RNA primer by the gene 4 primase at specific recognition sites. In the absence of a primase recognition site on the minicircle template no lagging strand synthesis occurs. The size of the Okazaki fragments is not affected by the number of recognition sites on the template. 相似文献

The separation of DNA replication origin licensing and activation in the cell cycle is essential for genome stability across generations in eukaryotic cells. Pre‐replicative complexes (pre‐RCs) license origins by loading Mcm2‐7 complexes in inactive form around DNA. During origin firing in S phase, replisomes assemble around the activated Mcm2‐7 DNA helicase. Budding yeast pre‐RCs have previously been reconstituted in vitro with purified proteins. Here, we show that reconstituted pre‐RCs support replication of plasmid DNA in yeast cell extracts in a reaction that exhibits hallmarks of cellular replication initiation. Plasmid replication in vitro results in the generation of covalently closed circular daughter molecules, indicating that the system recapitulates the initiation, elongation, and termination stages of DNA replication. Unexpectedly, yeast origin DNA is not strictly required for DNA replication in vitro, as heterologous DNA sequences could support replication of plasmid molecules. Our findings support the notion that epigenetic mechanisms are important for determining replication origin sites in budding yeast, highlighting mechanistic principles of replication origin specification that are common among eukaryotes. 相似文献

Letter: Some unusual properties of replicating adenovirus type 2 DNA 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
U Pettersson 《Journal of molecular biology》1973,81(4):521-527
Replicating adenovirus type 2 DNA was isolated from KB cells 13 hours after infection. The buoyant density in caesium chloride of the replicating DNA was found to be 5 to 10 mg/cm2 greater than that of mature adenovirus type 2 DNA. The single-strand specific nuclease from Neurospora crassa released 25 to 30% of the radioactivity from replicating DNA and the density difference between replicating and mature adenovirus DNA was eliminated after digestion with this enzyme, but not after digestion with RNase or pronase. The results suggest that the complementary strands of adenovirus type 2 DNA are replicated asynchronously. 相似文献

The origin and direction of both φX174 double-stranded and single-stranded DNA synthesis has been determined by pulsing replicating viral DNA molecules with [3H]thymidine for periods of less than one round of DNA synthesis and examining distribution of activity in the Haemophilus influenzae restriction endonuclease (Hin) DNA fragments of these molecules. In early RFI and RFII DNA intermediates in double-stranded DNA replication, gradients of label were observed which started in the R3 fragment (cistron A) and increased towards the R4 fragment (cistron H). The origin of synthesis is near the R4/R3 junction of the R3 fragment. Thus, φX174 double-stranded DNA synthesis proceeds clockwise around the genetic map (5′ → 3′), in one direction only and starting in the region of cistron A, a conclusion consistent with the genetic experiments of Baas &; Jansz (1972). Similar experiments with the gapped late RFII DNA molecules that have just completed a round of single-stranded viral DNA synthesis demonstrated that φX174 single-stranded DNA synthesis also has a single origin of replication in the region of cistron A, and that the synthesis moves in the 5′ → 3′ direction, around the genetic map. The gap in both the early and the late RFII DNA molecules also appears to be in the R3 fragment containing cistron A. 相似文献

We have characterized some of the experimental conditions that are essential for initiation of human mitochondrial DNA synthesis. Mitochondria were purified from HeLa cells and were permeabilized with Triton X-100. When supplied with rNTPs and dNTPs, the permeabilized mitochondria synthesized nucleic acids that ranged in size from about 600 to 2000 nucleotides. In vitro DNA synthesis occurred on endogenous DNA templates and required a continuous supply of ATP. Analyses of the synthetic products revealed that almost all of them were of heavy-strand sequence and included authentic 7S DNA. Most of the synthetic products had 5' ends that mapped to similar locations as those previously identified for nascent heavy-strand DNA. Identification of these parameters should facilitate our efforts to achieve in vitro replication of heavy-strand mitochondrial DNA. 相似文献

DNA-protein complexes isolated from adenovirus-infected cells by a modification of the M-band technique were used as an in vitro system for the study of adenovirus DNA replication. The synthesis in vitro was semiconservative, inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide, and stimulated by ATP. Studies on DNA-negative mutants of adenovirus showed that the DNA synthesis in vitro represents a continuation of adenovirus DNA replication in vivo. DNA synthesis in vitro was inhibited 38% by 20 microgram of phosphonoacetic acid per ml, which is several-fold higher than the inhibition obtained with purified DNA polymerase beta or gamma, but was similar to the degree of inhibition of DNA polymerase alpha. DNA synthesis in complexes from uninfected cells was much less sensitive to inhibition by phosphonoacetic acid. In addition, complexes from infected cells contained a greater proportion of the alpha-polymerase than complexes from uninfected cells, suggesting that an association of alpha-polymerase with the replication complex may be occurring during adenovirus infection, with subsequent utilization of the alpha-polymerase for viral DNA synthesis. 相似文献

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) obtained from ovaries of Drosophila simulans, D. mauritiana, D. takahashii, D. yakuba and D. virilis was examined by electron microscopy. From a consideration of the structural properties of replicative intermediates, it was concluded that in mtDNA molecules of each species, synthesis on one strand can be up to 97% complete before synthesis on the complementary strand is initiated. MtDNA molecules of each species contain a single A+T-rich region which shows species-specific size variation from 1.0 kb (D. virilis) to 4.8 kb (D. simulans), and maps at the same position in all molecules relative to three common EcoRI sites. The structural properties of complex forms, interpreted as having originated from replicative intermediates, and produced by either partial denaturation or EcoRI digestion, are consistent with the hypothesis that replication is initiated within the A+T-rich region and proceeds unidirectionally around the molecule towards the nearest common EcoRI site. The replication origin is located near the center of the A+T-rich region in D. simulans and D. mauritiana, but lies closer to that end of the A+T-rich region which is distal to the nearest common EcoRI site in D. takahashii, D. yakuba and D. virilis. 相似文献

Adenovirus DNA synthesis carried out in vitro was inhibited by the aphidicolin. However, 30% of the DNA synthesis was resistant to aphidicolin even at a concentration of 200 micrograms/ml. When the distribution patterns of the radioactivity of the products synthesized in the presence of 50 micrograms/ml of the drug was examined after HindIII digestion of the product DNA, the radioactivity appeared preferentially in the fragments mapping nearest to the ends of the molecule. Pulse-chase experiment showed that the terminal fragments were synthesized with or without aphidicolin but that in the presence of aphidicolin the rate of elongation rapidly slowed down beyond this region, suggesting that a DNA polymerase sensitive to aphidicolin may participate in the synthesis of the internal region of adenovirus DNA. 相似文献

Regulation of bacterial priming and daughter strand synthesis through helicase-primase interactions 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
The replisome is a multi-component molecular machine responsible for rapidly and accurately copying the genome of an organism. A central member of the bacterial replisome is DnaB, the replicative helicase, which separates the parental duplex to provide templates for newly synthesized daughter strands. A unique RNA polymerase, the DnaG primase, associates with DnaB to repeatedly initiate thousands of Okazaki fragments per replication cycle on the lagging strand. A number of studies have shown that the stability and frequency of the interaction between DnaG and DnaB determines Okazaki fragment length. More recent work indicates that each DnaB hexamer associates with multiple DnaG molecules and that these primases can coordinate with one another to regulate their activities at a replication fork. Together, disparate lines of evidence are beginning to suggest that Okazaki fragment initiation may be controlled in part by crosstalk between multiple primases bound to the helicase. 相似文献

Soluble nuclear extracts prepared from adenovirus-infected HeLa cells supported adenovirus DNA replication with exogenous DNA-protein complex as template, but protease-treated, phenol-extracted DNA was less active. Replication was enhanced when creatine phosphate and creatine phosphokinase were included in the reaction mixture, rendering the reaction independent of exogenous ATP. Genomic-length, newly synthesized DNA strands were first observed 30 min after initiation of replication and continued to increase in amount for at least 4 h. Thus, the rate of replication is consistent with previous estimates of the rate of replication in vivo. Nascent DNA strands bound to benzoylated, naphthoylated DEAE-cellulose due to their association with protein. The 5' termini of nascent DNA strands were resistant to the 5'- to 3'-specific T7 exonuclease, and the 3' termini of nascent strands were sensitive to the 3'- to 5'-specific exonuclease III. These results suggest that a protein becomes covalently linked to the 5' termini of nascent DNA strands replicated in vitro. Nuclear extracts prepared from adenovirus type 2-infected cells also supported replication of DNA-protein complex prepared from the unrelated type 7 adenovirus. The limited sequence homology between these two viruses at the origin of replication further defines recognition sequences at the origin. These results are discussed in terms of a model for adenovirus DNA replication in which the terminal protein and sequences within the inverted terminal repetition are involved in the formation of an initiation complex that is able to prime DNA replication. 相似文献
