DNA synthesis by avian myeloblastosis virus was studied using poly(C) as template and modified oligo(dG) as primer. The addition of one noncomplementary base to the 3'-end of the primer has no important effect on synthesis. The mispaired base is incorporated into the product and the apparent Km (for primer) and the V of the reaction remain unchanged. This confirms the absence of a 3' leads to 5'-exodeoxynuclease activity using a template that is transcribed faithfully rather than one that can undergo a slippage reaction. 相似文献

Sequence relatedness between the subunits of avian myeloblastosis virus reverse transcriptase. 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
One- and two-diminsional tryptic and chymotryptic peptide maps of 125-I-labeled alpha and alphabeta avian myeloblastosis virus DNA polymerase demonstrate that the alpha polypeptide of the one and two subunit enzymes are structurally similar, if not identical. Furthermore, the beta subunit contains the same major 125I-labeled peptides as alpha, plus several additional peptides. These relationships and the fact that aging of purified alphabeta avian myeloblastosis virus DNA polymerase increases the proportion of alpha DNA polymerase that can be isolated from the alphabeta enzyme by phosphocellulose chromatography, suggests that alpha is derived from beta by proteolytic cleavage. 相似文献

Influence of phosphate on activity and stability of reverse transcriptase from avian myeloblastosis virus. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4 下载免费PDF全文
Activity of RNA-dependent DNA polymerase (RDDP) from avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV), either in purified form or in virus lysates, was increased by phosphorylation. Stability of RDDP in lysates buffered with phosphate was much greater (no loss of activity in 48 hours at 4 degrees) than that in lysates buffered with Tris-Cl (76% loss). Activity lost in the Tris-buffered extracts was completely restored by phosphorylation. The findings suggested that AMV RDDP activity is influenced by the degree of phosphorylation of the enzyme or enzyme-associated proteins and that this chemical modification is mediated by protein phosphokinase and phosphoprotein phosphatase present in crude extracts of purified AMV. Application of these results provided the basis of procedures whereby RDDP can be recovered in significantly higher yield and purity than formerly. 相似文献

Concerted integration of viral DNA termini by purified avian myeloblastosis virus integrase. 总被引:10,自引:7,他引:3 下载免费PDF全文
Concerted integration of retroviral DNA termini, which produces a characteristic duplication of sequences at the integration site and formation of the proviral state, is a necessary step of the retroviral life cycle. We investigated the pairwise integration reaction catalyzed by purified avian retrovirus integrase by measuring the response to solution parameters and how the sequences of the viral termini, which comprise the avian imperfect inverted repeat, affect the reaction. When we optimized the reaction, an efficiency was achieved which approached that measured in systems using cytoplasmic extracts from virus-infected cells. The response of purified avian integrase to solution parameters was similar to that of the integration activity derived from cellular extracts. For strand transfer, the U3 viral terminal sequences were preferred to those of the U5 termini, a result we previously showed for the trimming reaction. That the sequence preference was the same for trimming and strand transfer may be further evidence that only one catalytic site is used for both reactions. A significant number of integration sites were sequenced. Interesting trends were found for the fidelity of the host duplications to the avian 6-bp duplication size, the clustering of the integration sites in the nonessential region of the lambda host DNA, and the sequence characteristics of the duplication sites. 相似文献
