DNA-binding proteins essential for protein-primed bacteriophage ø29 DNA replication

DNA-binding proteins essential for protein-primed bacteriophage ø29 DNA replication

Bacillus subtilis phage Φ29 has a linear, double-stranded DNA 19 kb long with an inverted terminal repeat of 6 nucleotides and a protein covalently linked to the 5’ ends of the DNA. This protein, called terminal protein (TP), is the primer for the initiation of replication, a reaction catalyzed by t...
