The phage lambda operator OR1 and a 18 base pair symmetric lac operator have been studied by high resolution NMR. The imino proton resonances and the resonances of the unexchangeable protons (except the 5' and 5" sugar proton resonances) have been assigned by one- and two-dimensional NOE techniques. The imino proton resonances of OR1 and the symmetric lac operator have been used to monitor changes induced in the operator structure by the formation of a specific complex with the phage lambda cro protein and with the lac repressor N-terminal DNA binding domain ("headpiece"). Two regions within the OR1 sequence could be identified, where changes in the imino proton resonance positions occur: The central part around base pairs CG 9 and 10 and the region around base pairs AT 5 and CG 5. The TA base pair 6 is the only position in the symmetric lac operator, where the complex formation with headpiece induces a change.

D010582 Bacteriophage lambda A temperate inducible phage and type species of the genus lambda-like viruses, in the family SIPHOVIRIDAE. Its natural host is E. coli K12. Its VIRION contains linear double-stranded DNA with single-stranded 12-base 5' sticky ends. The DNA circularizes on infection. Coliphage lambda,Enterobacteria phage lambda,Phage lambda,lambda Phage
D012097 Repressor Proteins Proteins which maintain the transcriptional quiescence of specific GENES or OPERONS. Classical repressor proteins are DNA-binding proteins that are normally bound to the OPERATOR REGION of an operon, or the ENHANCER SEQUENCES of a gene until a signal occurs that causes their release. Repressor Molecules,Transcriptional Silencing Factors,Proteins, Repressor,Silencing Factors, Transcriptional
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004268 DNA-Binding Proteins Proteins which bind to DNA. The family includes proteins which bind to both double- and single-stranded DNA and also includes specific DNA binding proteins in serum which can be used as markers for malignant diseases.
