During genetic transformation of Streptococcus pneumoniae, single strands from native donor DNA enter competent cells, where they associate with an unidentified protein with a molecular mass of 15 to 20 kDa to form the eclipse complex. Using Western blotting, we identify the principal protein cofractionating with donor DNA in this complex as SsbB.
在肺炎链球菌的基因转化过程中,来自天然供体DNA的单链进入感受态细胞,在那里它们与一种分子量为15至20 kDa的未知蛋白质结合形成蚀复合物。通过蛋白质免疫印迹法,我们确定在该复合物中与供体DNA共分离的主要蛋白质为SsbB。
