Contactpoint analysis of the HeLa nuclear factor I recognition site reveals symmetrical binding at one side of the DNA helix
Abstract
Nuclear factor I (NFI) is a HeLa sequence-specific DNA-binding protein that is required for initiation of adenovirus (Ad) DNA replication and may be involved in the expression of several cellular genes. The interaction between NFI and its binding site on the Ad2 origin has been studied. Methylation interference and protection, u.v. irradiation of 5-BrdU substituted DNA and ethylation interference revealed major groove contacts with G and T, and phosphate backbone contacts. Computer stereographics show that the contacts are located in two blocks showing dyad symmetry to each other and 22 out of 23 contacts are accessible from one side of the helix. Inversion of the NFI binding site did not change the NFI dependent stimulation of Ad2 DNA replication in a reconstituted system. All data are compatible with NFI binding as a dimer at one side of the DNA helix.
