David Jeruzalmi, Mike O'Donnell, and John Kuriyan. Cell, Vol 106, 429-441, August 2001 Summary The gamma complex, an AAA+ ATPase, is the bacterial homolog of eukaryotic Replication Factor C (RFC) that loads the sliding clamp (beta, homologous to PCNA) onto DNA. The 2.7/3.0 Å crystal structure of gamma complex reveals a pentameric arrangement

Get a quoteAbstract. A coherent view of the structure and function of DNA polymerase processivity factors (sliding clamps and clamp loaders) is emerging from recent structural studies. Crystal structures of sliding clamps from the T4 and RB69 bacteriophages, and from an archaebacterium expand the gallery of ring-shaped processivity factors and clarify how

Get a quoteThe clamp loaders (RF-C and γ complex) were also capable of unloading their respective clamps from DNA in the presence of ATP. Conclusions: The stability of the different clamps in solution correlates with their stability on DNA. Thus, the low stability of the T4 clamp explains the inability to isolate gp45 on DNA.
Get a quoteFig. 1 Clamp loaders assemble clamps onto DNA for use by other enzymes. (a) The scheme illustrates the need for a clamp loader to open and close the circular clamp, placing it around DNA in an ATP dependent reaction.The clamp loader leaves, allowing other enzymes, such as polymerase, to target the clamp for processive synthesis. (b) Sliding clamps have similar …
Get a quoteJan 11, 2008 · The structure of the E. coli β clamp polymerase processivity factor has been solved in complex with primed DNA. Interestingly, the clamp directly binds the DNA duplex and also forms a crystal contact with the ssDNA template strand, which binds into the protein-binding pocket of the clamp. We demonstrate that these clamp-DNA interactions function in clamp …
Get a quoteDavid Jeruzalmi, Mike O'Donnell, and John Kuriyan. The sliding clamps and their associated clamp loading systems are of broad importance in many cellular processes involving DNA, delta-prime and delta subunits, at 2.7/3.0 Å resolution. The clamp loader complex is assembled from five subunits, each with the same fold. Nevertheless, each
Get a quoteThe clamp can not assemble itself on DNA. Instead, a protein complex known as a clamp loader utilizes ATP to assemble the ring around the primer-template. This study compares properties of the human PCNA clamp with those of E. coli and T4 phage. Results: The PCNA ring is a stable trimer down to a concentration below 100 nM (K d ≈ 21 nM).
