==The Crystal Structure of the Bifunctional Primase-Helicase of Bacteriophage T7==
-
Within minutes after infecting Escherichia coli, bacteriophage T7, synthesizes many copies of its genomic DNA. The lynchpin of the T7, replication system is a bifunctional primase-helicase that unwinds duplex, DNA at the replication fork while initiating the synthesis of Okazaki, fragments on the lagging strand. We have determined a 3.45 A crystal, structure of the T7 primase-helicase that shows an articulated arrangement, of the primase and helicase sites. The crystallized primase-helicase is a, heptamer with a crown-like shape, reflecting an intimate packing of, helicase domains into a ring that is topped with loosely arrayed primase, domains. This heptameric isoform can accommodate double-stranded DNA in, its central channel, which nicely explains its recently described DNA, remodeling activity. The double-jointed structure of the primase-helicase, permits a free range of motion for the primase and helicase domains that, suggests how the continuous unwinding of DNA at the replication fork can, be periodically coupled to Okazaki fragment synthesis.

[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/HELIC_BPT7 HELIC_BPT7] ATP-dependent DNA helicase and primase essential for viral DNA replication and recombination (PubMed:21606333, PubMed:22977246, PubMed:32009150). The helicase moves 5' -> 3' on the lagging strand template, unwinding the DNA duplex ahead of the leading strand polymerase at the replication fork and generating ssDNA for both leading and lagging strand synthesis (PubMed:21606333, PubMed:22977246, PubMed:32009150). ATP or dTTP hydrolysis propels each helicase domain to translocate 2 nt per step sequentially along DNA (PubMed:30679383, PubMed:17604719). Mediates strand transfer when a joint molecule is available and participates in recombinational DNA repair through its role in strand exchange (PubMed:9096333, PubMed:8617248). Primase activity synthesizes short RNA primers at the sequence 5'-GTC-3' on the lagging strand that the polymerase elongates using dNTPs and providing the primase is still present (PubMed:6454135, PubMed:9139692).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04154]<ref>PMID:17604719</ref> <ref>PMID:21606333</ref> <ref>PMID:22977246</ref> <ref>PMID:30679383</ref> <ref>PMID:32009150</ref> <ref>PMID:6454135</ref> <ref>PMID:8617248</ref> <ref>PMID:9096333</ref> <ref>PMID:9139692</ref>
