Stoichiometry of DnaA and DnaB Protein in Initiation at the Escherichia coli Chromosomal Origin

Abstract: Initiation of DNA replication at the Escherichia coli chromosomal origin, oriC, occurs through an ordered series of events that depend first on the binding of DnaA protein, the replication initiator, to DnaA box sequences within oriC followed by unwinding of an AT-rich region near the left border. The prepriming complex then forms, involving the binding of DnaB helicase at oriC so that it is properly positioned at each replication fork. We assembled and isolated the prepriming complexes on an oriC plasmid, the… Show more

“…On the bottom strand the area protected is to the left of DnaA box R1 that overlaps the right 13-mer. Quantitative analysis of this protein complex assembled at oriC supports the conclusion from footprinting studies that two DnaB -DnaC complexes are bound (Fang et al 1999;Carr and Kaguni 2001).…”

“…In bacteria, origin DNA is initially unwound by DnaA, which promotes the DnaA-and DnaC-assisted loading of 2 single hexameric DnaB helicase complexes onto ssDNA (34). Large T-antigen, the replicative helicase from SV40, forms a hexamer in solution.…”

“…Complexed to ATP, DnaA next unwinds a region within oriC and then recruits the replicative helicase, DnaB, to form the prepriming complex (3,4). After DnaB translocates to the apex of each replication fork, the helicase both unwinds the parental DNA and interacts transiently with primase (5,6). Primers synthesized by primase are then extended by DNA polymerase III holoenzyme under a bidirectional mode of DNA replication.…”
