Novel blunt-end addition reactions catalyzed by DNA polymerase I of Escherichia coli 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
DNA polymerase I (Klenow fragment) of Escherichia coli catalyzes the addition of deoxynucleotides to 3' hydroxyl termini of blunt-ended DNA fragments. The product of the reaction, which we call +1 addition, is found only in very low yield under conditions that permit editing by the 3'----5' exonuclease activity of the wild-type polymerase. A mutant form of the Klenow fragment that lacks detectable 3'----5' exonuclease activity shows an elevated accumulation of the +1 addition product. The mutant enzyme can use any one of the four dNTPs to carry out the reaction when each precursor is provided individually. However, in the presence of all four dNTPs the addition of dATP is strongly preferred. Suppression of the editing function of the wild-type polymerase through the use of high concentrations of exogenous deoxynucleoside monophosphates also results in a significant increase in the amount of +1 addition product formed. The presence of a high dNMP concentration also alters the specificity of the nucleotide addition reaction carried out by the wild-type enzyme. Thus, in addition to dATP, the dNTP which is complementary to the exogenous deoxynucleoside monophosphate, is also used in the +1 addition reaction. A similar effect of dNMPs on the specificity of nucleotide addition was obtained with the mutant Klenow fragment. These results define two pathways for the +1 addition reaction: one that does not require coding information from the DNA template and a second in which coding information is provided by the exogenous dNMP. 相似文献

The diastereomers of adenosine 5'-O-(1-thiotriphosphate) (ATP alpha S) and adenosine 5'-O-(2-thiotriphosphate) (ATP beta S) can replace adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the initiation reaction catalyzed by deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) dependent ribonucleic acid (RNA) polymerase from Escherichia coli. In both cases, the Sp diastereomer is a better initiator than the Rp isomer. The diasteromers of 3'-uridyl 5'-adenosyl ,O-phosphorothioate [Up(S)A] can replace UpA in the primed initiation reaction catalyzed by RNA polymerase; however, the Rp diastereomer is a better initiator than the Sp isomer. By using ATP or CpA as initiator and UTP alpha S, isomer A, as substrate, we determined the stereochemical courses of both the initiation and primed initiation reactions, respectively, with T7 DNA template and found them to proceed with inversion of configuration. Determination of the stereochemical course of the pyrophosphate exchange reaction catalyzed by RNA polymerase provides evidence that this reaction is the reverse of the phosphodiester bond-forming reaction. 相似文献

Histones from exponential and stationary-phase mouse L-cells were quantitated after acrylamide gel electrophoresis in order to investigate cell cycle-dependent changes in the mode of binding of the various fractions in chromatin. By introducing various concentrations of citrate and divalent cations in the medium used for cell lysis and isolation of nuclei prior to histone extraction it was possible to demonstrate that certain histone fractions are preferentially retained in either exponential or stationary-phase nuclei. Differential retention of lysine-rich F1 was most evident when the lysing medium contained 1 mm Mg2+ and Ca2+ and 5 mm citrate (pH 2.75). In these conditions twice as much F1 is retained in stationary as in exponential nuclei. Differential retention of arginine-rich histones was most evident when the lysing medium contained 10 mm Mg2+ and Ca2+ and no citrate. In these conditions more F2a 1 is retained in exponential than in stationary nuclei while the opposite is true for F3. However, the total amount of arginine-rich fractions (F2a 1 + F3) retained was found to be the same in both cell phases. The results are discussed in relation to known structural features of the histones. 相似文献

A new deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase I mutant of Escherichia coli was isolated among conditional lethal mutants. Deoxyribonucleic acid replication in the mutant ceased in 20 min after the temperature was raised to 43 degrees C, and reinitiated when cells were further incubated at this temperature. 相似文献

The effect of the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) gyrase inhibitors coumermycin A1, novobiocin, and oxolinic acid on ribonucleic acid (RNA) synthesis in Escherichia coli was studied in vivo and in vitro. Preferential inhibition of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) synthesis was observed. No effect of oxolinic acid and coumermycin on rRNA synthesis was seen in mutants having a DNA gyrase which is resistant to these inhibitors. In a temperature-sensitive DNA gyrase mutant rRNA synthesis was decreased at nonpermissive temperatures. Thus, a functional DNA gyrase is required for rRNA synthesis. Purified DNA gyrase had no effect on rRNA synthesis in a purified system. However, DNA gyrase does show preferential stimulation of rRNA synthesis in a system supplemented with other proteins. Apparently, DNA gyrase stimulation of rRNA synthesis requires another protein. 相似文献
