초록

박테리오파지 T7 gene 2.5 단백질은 single-stranded DNA 결합 단백질로 박태리오파지 T7의 DNA복제, 재조합, 및 수선에 필수적으로 요구된다. Gene 2.5 protein은 T7의 DNA 합성과 성장에 필수적인 단백질이다. Gene 2.5 Protein이 중요시 되는 이유는 이 단백질이 T7의 다른 복제 필수단백질인 T7의 다른 복제 필수단백질인 T7 DNA polymerase 와 gene 4 protein(helicase/primase)와 서로 상호작용할 것으로 제안되었기 때문이다. (Kim and Richardson, J. Biol. Chem., 1992;1994). 이 단백질의 단백질 상호작용을 가능하게 하는 domain은 carboxyl-terminal domain일 것으로 여러 실험에서 대두되었기에, 이 domain의 특성을 파악하기 위해 야생형과 변이체 gene 2.5 단백질들을 각각 GST에 융합한후 fusion 단백질을 정제하였다. 정제된 이 융합 단백질들의 carboxyl-terminal domain이 T7 복제 단백질들과 상호작용을 조사하는지를 조사하기 위해 affinity chromatography로 이용하였다. 실험 결과, 아생형 GST-gene 2.5 융합단잭질(GST-2.5 (WT))는 T7 DNA polymerase 와 상호작용을 하였지만. 변이형 융합단백질(GST-2.5$\Delta$21C)는 interaction을 하지 못했다. 이 결과는 carbohyl-terminal domain이 단백질-단백질 상호작용을 하는데 직접적으로 관여하는 것을 증명하였다. 또한,GST2.5(WT)는 gene 4 protein(helicase/primase)와 직접 상호작용을 하나. GST2.5$\Delta$21C는 상호작용을 하지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 gene 4 proteins와의 상호작용에도 gene 2.5 protein의 carboxyl-terminal domain이 직접 관여 한다는 것이 증명되었다. 이상의 결과에서 gene 2.5 protein은 박테리오파지 T7 의 유전자 목제 시 단백질-단백질 상호작용에 관혀아며, 특히 gene 2.5 protein의 carboxyl-terminal domain이 이러한 상호작용에 직접적으로 관여하는 domain이라는 것을 알 수가 있었다.

Bacteriophage T7 gene 2.5 protein, a single-stranded DNA binding protein, is required for T7 DNA replication, recombination, and repair. T7 gene 2.5 protein has two distinctive domains, DNA binding and C-terminal domain, directly involved in protein-protein interaction. Gene 2.5 protein participates in the DNA replication of Bacteriophage T7, which makes this protein essential for the T7 growth and DNA replication. What gene 2.5 protein makes important at T7 growth and DNA replication is its binding affinity to single-stranded DNA and the protein-protein important at T7 DNA replication proteins which are essential for the T7 DNA synthesis. We have constructed pGST2.5(WT) encoding the wild-type gene 2.5 protein and pGST2.5$\Delta $21C lacking C-terminal 21 amino acid residues. The purified GST-fusion proteins, GST2.5(WT) and GST2.5(WT)$\Delta$21C, were used for whether the carboxyl-terminal domain participates in the protein-protein interactions or not. GST2.5(WT) and GST2.5$\Delta$21C showed the difference in the protein-protein interaction. GST2.5(WT) interacted with T7 DNA polymerase and gene 4 protein, but GST2.5$\Delta$21C did not interact with either protein. Secondly, GST2.5(WT) interacts with gene 4 proteins (helicase/primase) but not GST2.5$\Delta$21C. these results proved the involvement of the carboxyl-terminal domain of gene 2.5 protein in the protein-protein interaction. We clearly conclude that carboxy-terminal domain of gene 2.5 protein is firmly involved in protein-protein interactions in T7 replication proteins.
