Recognition sequence of bacteriophage phi X174 gene A protein--an initiator of DNA replication. 1980

Gene A protein, the initiator protein of bacteriophage phi X174 DNA replication, cleaves synthetic single-stranded oligodeoxyribonucleotides at the same site as the corresponding sequence at the phi X origin. The results identify the recognition sequence within the decamer CAACTTGATA which is cleaved next to the G residue. Further requirements for cleavage of double-stranded DNA by the gene A protein are supercoiling and an A + T-rich domain adjacent to the recognition sequence.

D010584 Bacteriophage phi X 174 The type species of the genus MICROVIRUS. A prototype of the small virulent DNA coliphages, it is composed of a single strand of supercoiled circular DNA, which on infection, is converted to a double-stranded replicative form by a host enzyme.
