Isothermal, in vitro amplification of nucleic acids by a multienzyme reaction modeled after retroviral replication.
A target nucleic acid sequence can be replicated (amplified) exponentially in vitro under isothermal conditions by using three enzymatic activities essential to retroviral repli...
Directed evolution of polymerase function by compartmentalized self-replication
We describe compartmentalized self-replication (CSR), a strategy for the directed evolution of enzymes, especially polymerases. CSR is based on a simple feedback loop consisting...
DNA polymerase of bacteriophage T4 is an autogenous translational repressor.
In bacteriophage T4 the protein product of gene 43 (gp43) is a multifunctional DNA polymerase that is essential for replication of the phage genome. The protein harbors DNA-bind...
Termination of DNA synthesis by novel 3'-modifieddeoxyribonucleoside 5'-triphosphates
Eight 3'-modified-dNTPs were synthesized and tested in two different DNA template assays for incorporation activity. From this enzymatic screen, two 3'-O-methyl-dNTPs were shown...
Regulating RNA polymerase pausing and transcription elongation in embryonic stem cells
Transitions between pluripotent stem cells and differentiated cells are executed by key transcription regulators. Comparative measurements of RNA polymerase distribution over th...
