Abstract:
DNA methylase, present in low-salt extracts of nuclei prepared from Pisum sativum shoot tips, methylates model DNA substrates containing CNG trinucleotides or CI dinucleotides only. The binding to the hemimethylated trinucleotide substrates is very much stronger and more persistent than the binding to the unmethylated substrates or to the hemimethylated dinucleotide substrate. When the DNA concentration is limiting, the rate of methyl-group transfer with the hemimethylated CNG substrate is much greater than that with the unmethylated CNG. However, the Vmax. is similar for the two CNG substrate

Single-molecule studies involving DNA or RNA, require homogeneous preparations of nucleic acid substrates of exceptional quality. Over the past several years, a variety of methods have been published describing different purification methods but these are frustratingly inconsistent with variable yields even in the hands of experienced bench scientists. To address these issues, we present an optimized and straightforward, column-based approach that is reproducible and produces high yields of substrates or substrate components of exceptional quality.

Raman scattering signals can be enhanced by several orders of magnitude on surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates made from noble metal nanostructures. Some SERS substrates are even able to detect single-molecule Raman signals. A novel silver nanobud (AgNB) substrate with superior SERS activity was fabricated with a solid-state ionics method. The AgNB substrate was formed by tightly collocated unidirectional 100 nm size silver buds, presenting a highly rough surface topography. Distinct SERS signals of singleλ-DNA molecules in water were detected on AgNB substrates. AgNB substrate

The activity of DNA polymerase underlies numerous biotechnologies, cell division, and therapeutics, yet the enzyme remains incompletely understood.

For Taq DNA polymerase, the KMs of the dNDP and phosphate substrates are ∼20 and 200 times higher than for dNTP and pyrophosphate, respectively.

Speckle-type BTB/POZ protein (SPOP) is a substrate recognition receptor of the cullin-3 (CUL3)/RING type ubiquitin E3 complex.

Pathologically, missense mutations in the substrate-binding domain of SPOP have been found in prostate and endometrial cancers. Prostate and endometrial cancer-associated SPOP mutations lose and increase substrate-binding ability, respectively. Expression of these SPOP mutants, thus, causes aberrant turnovers of the substrate proteins, leading to tumor formatio

Type II topoisomerases are essential enzymes that modulate the topological state of DNA supercoiling in all living organisms. These enzymes alter DNA topology by performing double-stranded passage reactions on over- or underwound DNA substrates. This strand passage reaction generates a transient covalent enzyme–cleaved DNA structure known as the cleavage complex. Al-though the cleavage complex is a requisite catalytic intermediate, it is also intrinsically dangerous to genomic stability in biological systems.

Abstract:
A functional recombination assay involving the tetracycline mutant plasmids, pUW1 and pUW4, was used to assess (i) the nature of the DNA substrates needed and (ii) the involvement of Coprinus endonuclease in preparing substrate, for the RecA-directed recombination process. A gapped circular plasmid and a linear or a nicked circular plasmid are efficient substrate combinations in this system to achieve a 160-fold increase in the in vitro recombination frequency over the control levels. The Coprinus endonuclease obtained from early meiotic prophase can produce such substrates. The recombination

Abstract:
The MBD4 enzyme initiates the process of DNA demethylation by the excision of modified DNA bases, resulting in the formation of apurinic/apyrimidinic sites. MBD4 contains a methyl-CpG-binding domain which provides the localization of the enzyme at the CpG sites, and a DNA glycosylase domain that is responsible for the catalytic activity. The aim of this work was to clarify the mechanisms of specific site recognition and formation of catalytically active complexes between model DNA substrates and the catalytic N-glycosylase domain MBD4cat. The conformational changes in MBD4cat and DNA substrate

ABSTRACT Agrobacterium tumefaciens translocates DNA and protein substrates between cells via a type IV secretion system (T4SS) whose channel subunits include the VirD4 coupling protein, VirB11 ATPase, VirB6, VirB8, VirB2, and VirB9. In this study, we used linker insertion mutagenesis to characterize the contribution of the outer-membrane-associated VirB9 to assembly and function of the VirB/D4 T4SS. Twenty-five dipeptide insertion mutations were classified as permissive for intercellular substrate transfer (Tra+), completely transfer defective (Tra−), or substrate discriminating, e.g., selecti

Abstract:
The biochemical mechanism of short RNA-induced TGS (transcriptional gene silencing) in mammals is unknown. Two competing models exist; one suggesting that the short RNA interacts with a nascent transcribed RNA strand (RNA–RNA model) and the other implying that short RNA forms a heteroduplex with DNA from the unwound double helix, an R-loop structure (RNA–DNA model). Likewise, the requirement for DNA methylation to enact TGS is still controversial.

Scabin is a mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase toxin/enzyme and possible virulence factor produced by the agriculture pathogen, Streptomyces scabies. Recently, molecular dynamic approaches and MD simulations revealed its interaction with both NAD+ and DNA substrates. An Essential Dynamics Analysis identified a crab-claw-like mechanism, including coupled changes in the exposed motifs, and the Rβ1-RLa-NLc-STTβ2-WPN-WARTT-(QxE)ARTT sequence motif was proposed as a catalytic signature of the Pierisin family of DNA-acting toxins.

Abstract:
Human tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase (Tdp1) hydrolyzes the phosphodiester bond between a DNA 3′ end and a tyrosyl moiety. In eukaryotic cells, this type of linkage is found in stalled topoisomerase I-DNA covalent complexes, and Tdp1 has been implicated in the repair of such complexes in vivo. We confirm here that the Tdp1 catalytic cycle involves a covalent reaction intermediate in which a histidine residue is connected to a DNA 3′-phosphate through a phosphoamide linkage. Most surprisingly, this linkage can be hydrolyzed by Tdp1, and unlike a topoisomerase I-DNA complex, which requires modific
