High- and low-mobility populations of HP1 in heterochromatin of mammalian cells.
Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) is a conserved nonhistone chromosomal protein with functions in euchromatin and heterochromatin. Here we investigated the diffusional behaviors of HP1 isoforms in… Expand

Composition and Hierarchical Organisation of a Spider Silk
Albeit silks are fairly well understood on a molecular level, their hierarchical organisation and the full complexity of constituents in the spun fibre remain poorly defined. Here we link… Expand

Characterization of the protein components of Nephila clavipes dragline silk.
Spider silk is predominantly composed of structural proteins called spider fibroins or spidroins. The major ampullate silk that forms the dragline and the cobweb's frame threads of Nephila clavipes… Expand

The Replication Protein A Binding Site in Simian Virus 40 (SV40) T Antigen and Its Role in the Initial Steps of SV40 DNA Replication
ABSTRACT Physical interactions of simian virus 40 (SV40) large tumor (T) antigen with cellular DNA polymerase α-primase (Pol/Prim) and replication protein A (RPA) appear to be responsible for… Expand

Two Regions of Simian Virus 40 T Antigen Determine Cooperativity of Double-Hexamer Assembly on the Viral Origin of DNA Replication and Promote Hexamer Interactions during Bidirectional Origin DNA…
ABSTRACT Phosphorylation of simian virus 40 large tumor (T) antigen on threonine 124 is essential for viral DNA replication. A mutant T antigen (T124A), in which this threonine was replaced by… Expand

Protein-Protein Interactions of the Primase Subunits p58 and p48 with Simian Virus 40 T Antigen Are Required for Efficient Primer Synthesis in a Cell-free System*
DNA polymerase α-primase (pol-prim, consisting of p180-p68-p58-p48), and primase p58-p48 (prim2) synthesize short RNA primers on single-stranded DNA. In the SV40 DNA replication system, only pol-prim… Expand

Differential polymerization of the two main protein components of dragline silk during fibre spinning
Spider silks are some of the strongest materials found in nature1,2. Achieving the high tensile strength and elasticity of the dragline of orb-weaving spiders, such as Nephila clavipes3,4,5, is a… Expand
