The binding of fd gene-5 protein to single-stranded nucleic acid. 1975

A K Dunker, and E A Anderson

The gene-5 protein of the fd filamentous bacterial virus binds to single-stranded DNA over a pH range of 2-10.3. Binding to fd DNA is several hundred-fold stronger than to bacteriophage R17 RNA or to DNA tetranucleotides.
