Role of DNA gyrase in phiX replicative-form replication in vitro. 1977

K J Marians, and J E Ikeda, and S Schlagman, and J Hurwitz

Preparations containing DNA gyrase activity Gellert, M., Mizuchi, K., O'Dea, M.H. & Nash, H.A. (1976) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 73, 3872-3876] have been extensively purified from Escherichia coli. Such fractions, in the presence of ATP and Mg2+, catalyze supertwisting of relaxed circular double-stranded DNA replicative forms of a number of DNAs that results in the formation of superhelical replicative forms. Relaxed phiX174 replicative form (phiX RFIV) is not attacked by the A protein endonuclease coded for by the phiX DNA genome. After exposure to preparations of DNA gyrase, the relaxed phiX174 replicative form is converted to phiX RFI which can then be attacked by the phiX gene A protein and participate in replication of duplex phiX DNA.

D004269 DNA, Bacterial Deoxyribonucleic acid that makes up the genetic material of bacteria. Bacterial DNA
D004270 DNA, Circular Any of the covalently closed DNA molecules found in bacteria, many viruses, mitochondria, plastids, and plasmids. Small, polydisperse circular DNA's have also been observed in a number of eukaryotic organisms and are suggested to have homology with chromosomal DNA and the capacity to be inserted into, and excised from, chromosomal DNA. It is a fragment of DNA formed by a process of looping out and deletion, containing a constant region of the mu heavy chain and the 3'-part of the mu switch region. Circular DNA is a normal product of rearrangement among gene segments encoding the variable regions of immunoglobulin light and heavy chains, as well as the T-cell receptor.
