CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF A REPLICATION FORK DNA POLYMERASE EDITING COMPLEX AT 2.7 A RESOLUTION
Overview
We have solved the crystal structures of the bacteriophage RB69 sliding, clamp, its complex with a peptide essential for DNA polymerase, interactions, and the DNA polymerase complexed with primer-template DNA., The editing complex structure shows a partially melted duplex DNA exiting, from the exonuclease domain at an unexpected angle and significant changes, in the protein structure. The clamp complex shows the C-terminal 11, residues of polymerase bound in a hydrophobic pocket, and it allows, docking of the editing and clamp structures together. The peptide binds to, the sliding clamp at a position identical to that of a replication, inhibitor peptide bound to PCNA, suggesting that the replication inhibitor, protein p21CIP1 functions by competing with eukaryotic polymerases for the, same binding pocket on the clamp.
About this Structure
