We have used bandshift analysis to measure the interaction between the Escherichia coli mismatch-binding protein MutS and synthetic DNA fragments containing all possible DNA mismatches as well as an unpaired T (DeltaT). The order of affinity is found to be DeltaT>GT>GG>AA approximately TT approximately TC>CA>GA>CC>GC. We find that the affinity for GT mismatches is affected by the flanking sequence and decreases in the order G(n)C(n)>(GC)(n)>A(n)T(n)>(AT)(n). Studies with base analogues show good binding to phiT (where phi represents 1',2'-dideoxyribose), but much weaker binding to Gphi.
我们利用凝胶迁移分析来测定大肠杆菌错配结合蛋白MutS与含有所有可能DNA错配以及一个未配对T(ΔT)的合成DNA片段之间的相互作用。发现亲和力顺序为ΔT>GT>GG>AA≈TT≈TC>CA>GA>CC>GC。我们发现,对GT错配的亲和力受侧翼序列影响,按G(n)C(n)>(GC)(n)>A(n)T(n)>(AT)(n)的顺序降低。使用碱基类似物的研究表明,其与ϕT(其中ϕ代表1',2'-二脱氧核糖)结合良好,但与Gϕ的结合则弱得多。
