Abstract excerpt
Gene 5 protein of bacteriophage T7 is a nonprocessive DNA polymerase. During infection of Escherichia coli, T7 annexes the host protein thioredoxin for use as a processivity factor for T7 DNA polymerase. We describe here a genetic method to investigate the interaction between T7 gene 5 protein and E. coli thioredoxin. The strategy is to use thioredoxin mutants that are unable to support the growth of wild-type T7...
