Publication Abstract from PubMed
PriA, a DEXH-type DNA helicase, binds specifically to the 3' end of DNA through its N-terminal domain, and is a candidate sensor protein that recognizes arrested DNA replication forks in bacteria. We crystallized an N-terminal fragment of PriA in the absence and the presence of oligonucleotides to elucidate the structural basis for the specific recognition of the 3' terminus of DNA.
Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of the N-terminal domain of PriA from Escherichia coli.,Sasaki K, Ose T, Tanaka T, Mizukoshi T, Ishigaki T, Maenaka K, Masai H, Kohda D Biochim Biophys Acta. 2006 Jan;1764(1):157-60. Epub 2005 Oct 3. PMID:16226927[1]
