Structural Model for the interaction between RPA32 C-terminal domain and SV40 T antigen origin binding domain.

Overview

Simian virus 40 (SV40) provides a model system for the study of eukaryotic, DNA replication, in which the viral protein, large T antigen (Tag), marshals human proteins to replicate the viral minichromosome. SV40, replication requires interaction of Tag with the host single-stranded, DNA-binding protein, replication protein A (hRPA). The C-terminal domain, of the hRPA32 subunit (RPA32C) facilitates initiation of replication, but, whether it interacts with Tag is not known. Affinity chromatography and, NMR revealed physical interaction between hRPA32C and the Tag origin, DNA-binding domain, and a structural model of the complex was determined., Point mutations were then designed to reverse charges in the binding, sites, resulting in substantially reduced binding affinity. Corresponding, mutations introduced into intact hRPA impaired initiation of replication, and primosome activity, implying that this interaction has a critical role, in assembly and progression of the SV40 replisome.
