Recycling of single-stranded DNA-binding protein by the bacterial replisome
Lisanne M. Spenkelink,Lisanne M. Spenkelink,Lisanne M. Spenkelink,Jacob S. Lewis,Jacob S. Lewis,Slobodan Jergic,Slobodan Jergic,Zhi-Qiang Xu,Zhi-Qiang Xu,Andrew Robinson,Andrew Robinson,Nicholas E. Dixon,Nicholas E. Dixon,Antoine M. van Oijen,Antoine M. van Oijen +14 more
TL;DR: This visualize how an in vitro reconstituted Escherichia coli replisome recruits SSB by relying on two different molecular mechanisms, and shows that both internal transfer and external exchange mechanisms are physiologically relevant.
A Primase-Induced Conformational Switch Controls the Stability of the Bacterial Replisome.
Enrico Monachino,Enrico Monachino,Slobodan Jergic,Jacob S. Lewis,Zhi-Qiang Xu,Allen T.Y. Lo,Valerie L. O’Shea,James M. Berger,Nicholas E. Dixon,Antoine M. van Oijen +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown here that the molecular origin of this newly found plasticity lies in the 500-fold increase in strength of the interaction between the polymerase holoenzyme and the replicative helicase upon association of the primase with the replisome.

TL;DR: Current work involves the characterization of the role of the different protein domains in sliding, and the C-terminus of p53 is suggested to be responsible for keeping the protein in contact with DNA by non-specifically interacting with the negatively charged backbone of DNA, while the core domain is suggestedTo locate its target site on DNA, a transcription factor must recognize its site amongst millions to billions of alternative sites on DNA.
Kinetics of proton transport into influenza virions by the viral M2 channel.

TL;DR: An in vitro fluorescence-based assay to monitor internal acidification of individual virions triggered to undergo membrane fusion shows that rimantadine, an inhibitor of M2 proton conductance, blocks the acidification-dependent dissipation of fluorescence from a pH-sensitive virus-content probe.
E. coli DNA replication in the absence of free β clamps
Nathan A. Tanner,Nathan A. Tanner,Gökhan Tolun,Joseph J. Loparo,Slobodan Jergic,Jack D. Griffith,Nicholas E. Dixon,Antoine M. van Oijen,Antoine M. van Oijen +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that replication complexes pre‐assembled on DNA support synthesis of multiple Okazaki fragments in the absence of excess β clamps, expanding the understanding of lagging‐strand synthesis and emphasizing the stability of the replisome to continue synthesis without new clamps.
