CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Researchers report that a single-stranded DNA-binding protein (SSB), once thought to be a static player among the many molecules that interact with DNA, actually moves back and forth ...
ssDNA, which is involved in numerous aspects of chromosome biology, is managed by a suite of proteins with tailored activities. The majority of these proteins bind ssDNA indiscriminately, exhibiting ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The gene 2.5 protein (gp2.5) of bacteriophage T7 is a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) binding protein that has essential roles in DNA replication ...
After decades of mystery, scientists have finally figured out the structure of a key herpes virus protein that is vital for ...
Despite its utility, PCR’s main limitation is that it requires precise cycles of heating and cooling to amplify DNA. The thermal cyclers that perform this operation are clunky, relatively expensive, ...
An international research team has successfully identified the initial high-resolution structures of the herpes simplex virus origin-binding protein (OBP), which is an essential element in viral DNA ...
A rapid isothermal amplification technique enables pathogen identification and antibiotic resistance detection in low-resource settings. Recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) is a technique for ...
Temporary protein-protein bonds are essential for processes including enzymatic reactions, antibody binding, and response to medication. Being able to accurately characterize these bonds is important ...
