The Dynamics of Synthesis and Localization of Jumbo Phage RNA Polymerases inside Infected Cells.

A nucleus-like structure composed of phage-encoded proteins and containing replicating viral DNA is formed in cells infected by jumbo bacteriophage phiKZ. The PhiKZ genes are transcribed independently from host RNA polymerase (RNAP) by two RNAPs encoded by the phage. The virion RNAP (vRNAP) transcribes early viral genes and must be injected into the cell with phage DNA.

Characterization of CoCas9 nuclease from .

Cas9 nucleases are widely used for genome editing and engineering. Cas9 enzymes encoded by CRISPR-Cas defence systems of various prokaryotic organisms possess different properties such as target site preferences, size, and DNA cleavage efficiency. Here, we biochemically characterized CoCas9 from , a bacterium that inhabits the oral cavity of humans and contributes to plaque formation on teeth.

Structural Characteristics of High-Mobility Group Proteins HMGB1 and HMGB2 and Their Interaction with DNA.

Non-histone nuclear proteins HMGB1 and HMGB2 (High Mobility Group) are involved in many biological processes, such as replication, transcription, and repair. The HMGB1 and HMGB2 proteins consist of a short N-terminal region, two DNA-binding domains, A and B, and a C-terminal sequence of glutamic and aspartic acids. In this work, the structural organization of calf thymus HMGB1 and HMGB2 proteins and their complexes with DNA were studied using UV circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy.

Protealysin Targets the Bacterial Housekeeping Proteins FtsZ and RecA.

synthesizes the intracellular metalloprotease protealysin. This work was aimed at searching for bacterial substrates of protealysin among the proteins responsible for replication and cell division. We have shown that protealysin unlimitedly cleaves the SOS response protein RecA.
