Acts as a clamp, forming a ring around DNA (a reaction catalyzed by the clamp-loading complex) which diffuses in an ATP-independent manner freely and bidirectionally along dsDNA. Initially characterized for its ability to contact the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase III(Pol III), a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria; Pol III exhibits 3'-5' exonucleaseproofreading activity. The beta chain is required for initiation of replicationas well as for processivity of DNAreplication.[PIRNR:PIRNR000804] | + | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/DPO3B_BACSU DPO3B_BACSU] DNA polymerase III is a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria. This DNA polymerase also exhibits 3' to 5' exonuclease activity. The beta chain is required for initiation of replication once it is clamped onto DNA, it slides freely (bidirectional and ATP-independent) along duplex DNA.[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/MUTL_BACSU MUTL_BACSU] This protein is involved in the repair of mismatches in DNA. It is required for dam-dependent methyl-directed DNA mismatch repair. May act as a "molecular matchmaker", a protein that promotes the formation of a stable complex between two or more DNA-binding proteins in an ATP-dependent manner without itself being part of a final effector complex (By similarity). Overexpression of mutSL partially suppresses the high spontaneous mutation frequency of a ytkD/mutM/yfhQ triple disruption which lacks the system required to prevent damage by oxidized guanine (8-oxo-dGTP). This suggests that MutSL also functions to repair mismatches due to oxidative stress in both growing and stationary phase cells.<ref>PMID:19011023</ref>  |

| - | The beta-clamp is a proteinhub central to DNA replication and fork management. Proteins interacting with the beta-clamp harbor a conserved clamp-binding motif that isoften found inextended regions. Therefore, clamp interactions have -almost exclusively- been studied using short peptides recapitulating thebinding motif. This approach has revealed the molecular determinants that mediate the binding but cannot describe how proteins with clamp-binding motifs embedded instructured domains are recognized.The mismatch repair protein MutL has an internal clamp-binding motif, but its interaction with the beta-clamp has different roles depending on the organism. In Bacillus subtilis, the interaction stimulates the endonuclease activity of MutL and it is critical for DNA mismatch repair.Conversely,disrupting the interaction between Escherichia coli MutL and the beta-clamp only causes amild mutator phenotype. Here, we determined thestructures ofthe regulatory domains of E. coli and B. subtilis MutL bound to their respective beta-clamps. The structures reveal different binding modes consistent with the binding to the beta-clamp being a two-step process. Functional characterization indicates that, within the regulatory domain, only the clamp bindingmotif is required for the interaction between the two proteins. However, additional motifs beyond the regulatory domain may stabilize the interaction. We propose a model for the activation of the endonuclease activity of MutL inorganisms lacking methyl-directed mismatch repair.
