25. Recognition of the adenovirus type 2 origin of DNA replication by the virally encoded DNA polymerase and preterminal proteins.
Initiation of adenovirus DNA synthesis is preceded by the assembly of a nucleoprotein complex at the origin of DNA replication containing three viral proteins, preterminal protein, DNA polymerase and DNA binding protein, and two cellular proteins, nuclear factors I and III. While sequence specific interactions of the cellular proteins with their cognate site

26. Solution NMR-derived global fold of a monomeric 82-kDa enzyme
The size of proteins that can be studied by solution NMR spectroscopy has increased significantly because of recent developments in methodology. Important experiments include those that make use of approaches that increase the lifetimes of NMR signals or that define the orientation of internuclear bond vectors with respect to a common molecular frame.

27. Functional empty capsid precursors produced by lambda mutant defective for late lambda DNA replication.
This report described lambda phage morphogenesis in a mutant system in which the normal pathways for late phage DNA (concatemer) synthesis are blocked and early (monomeric circular) DNA replication products accumulate. As shown earlier (Dawson et al., 1975) under these conditions, late proteins are synthesized and assembled into headlike structures. These st

28. Arrangement of the subunits in the ribosome of Escherichia coli: demonstration by immunoelectron microscopy.
The three-dimensional locations of Escherichia coli ribosomal proteins S13, L1, and L7/L12 on the surface of ribosomal subunits and 70S monomeric ribosomes were determined by electron microscopy of antibody-labeled ribosomal particles. A new approach to orient the subunits within 70S ribosomes was developed that used 30S.70S.50S triples that were prepared by

29. Arabidopsis homologs of a c-Jun coactivator are present both in monomeric form and in the COP9 complex, and their abundance is differentially affected by the pleiotropic cop/det/fus mutations.
The CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC9 (COP9) complex is a nuclear localized, multisubunit protein complex essential for repression of light-mediated development in Arabidopsis. Mutations that abolish the complex result in constitutive photomorphogenic development in darkness and pleiotropic developmental defects in both light and darkness. Here, we report the i

30. Wnt-1 regulates free pools of catenins and stabilizes APC-catenin complexes.
The Wnt-1 proto-oncogene induces the accumulation of beta-catenin and plakoglobin, two related proteins that associate with and functionally modulate the cadherin cell adhesion proteins. Here we have investigated the effects of Wnt-1 expression on the tumor suppressor protein APC, which also associates with catenins. Expression of Wnt-1 in two different cell

31. Domain swapping: entangling alliances between proteins.
The comparison of monomeric and dimeric diphtheria toxin (DT) reveals a mode for protein association which we call domain swapping. The structure of dimeric DT has been extensively refined against data to 2.0-A resolution and a three-residue loop has been corrected as compared with our published 2.5-A-resolution structure. The monomeric DT structure has also

32. In vitro trimerization of OmpF porin secreted by spheroplasts of Escherichia coli.
It is not yet clear how bacterial outer membrane proteins reach their correct destination after they are secreted across the cytoplasmic membrane. We show here that porin OmpF is secreted into the medium as a water-soluble monomeric protein by spheroplasts of Escherichia coli. Furthermore, this monomeric porin is taken up by cell envelope preparations or pur

33. Detection of dsRNA-binding domains in RNA helicase A and Drosophila maleless: implications for monomeric RNA helicases.
Searches with dsRNA-binding domain profiles detected two copies of the domain in each of RNA helicase A, Drosophila maleless and C. elegans ORF T20G5-11 (of unknown function). RNA helicase A is unusual in being one of the few characterised DEAD/DExH helicases that are active as monomers. Other monomeric DEAD/DExH RNA helicases (p68, NPH-II) have domains that

34. Mechanical force generation by G proteins
GTP-hydrolyzing G proteins are molecular switches that play a critical role in cell signaling processes. Here we use molecular dynamics simulations to show that Ras, a monomeric G protein, can generate mechanical force upon hydrolysis. The generated force levels are comparable to those produced by ATP-hydrolyzing motor proteins, consistent with the structura

35. Phosphate-starvation-induced outer membrane proteins of members of the families Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonodaceae: demonstration of immunological cross-reactivity with an antiserum specific for porin protein P of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Bacteria from members of the families Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonadaceae were grown under phosphate-deficient (0.1 to 0.2 mM Pi) conditions and examined for the production of novel membrane proteins. Of the 17 strains examined, 12 expressed a phosphate-starvation-induced outer membrane protein which was heat modifiable in that after solubilization in so

36. Tryptophan zippers: Stable, monomeric β-hairpins
A structural motif, the tryptophan zipper (trpzip), greatly stabilizes the β-hairpin conformation in short peptides. Peptides (12 or 16 aa in length) with four different turn sequences are monomeric and fold cooperatively in water, as has been observed previously for some hairpin peptides. However, the folding free energies of the trpzips exceed substa
