The E1 protein from bovine papillomavirus has site-specific DNA binding activity, DNA helicase activity, and DNA-dependent ATPase activity consistent with the properties of an initiator protein. Here we have identified and characterized a novel oligomeric form of E1 that is associated with the ATPase and DNA helicase activities and whose formation is strongly stimulated by single-stranded DNA. This oligomeric form corresponds to a hexamer of E1.
来自牛乳头瘤病毒的E1蛋白具有位点特异性DNA结合活性、DNA解旋酶活性和依赖于DNA的ATP酶活性,这些活性与引发蛋白的特性相符。在这里,我们鉴定并表征了一种新型的E1寡聚体形式,它与ATP酶和DNA解旋酶活性相关,并且其形成受到单链DNA的强烈刺激。这种寡聚体形式对应于E1的六聚体。
